Giuseppe Mascarello Barolo 'Monprivato' 2018

Nebbiolo from Castiglione Falletto, Barolo

Giuseppe Mascarello Barolo ‘Monprivato’ 2018

The Giuseppe Mascarello 2018 Barolo Monprivato reveals an open and accessible personality. This wine is an immediate charmer. I tasted these wines with the Mascarello family seated across the table from me, and during our chat, they explained that this was a gratifying vintage in terms of farming and winemaking. The growing season was not too hot, and high alcohol levels were not an issue, they say. In the case of this wine, we are greeted to mild tannins and a pretty bouquet with delicate flora

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Chambolle-Musigny 2023

Pinot Noir from Chambolle-Musigny, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Chambolle-Musigny 2023

Note: from <2 ha of vines in the upper southwest portion of the commune that includes some declassified 1ers from Les Baudes and FuéesA fresh and ripe nose speaks primarily of cool red berries, spice and a pretty floral top note. There is a lovely sense of volume and punch to the supple and delicious flavors that flash surprisingly good power on the impressively long bitter pit fruit-inflected finish where the only nit is a touch of warmth.

Roagna Barbaresco Montefico Vecchie Viti 2015

Nebbiolo from Barbaresco, Piedmont

Roagna Barbaresco Montefico Vecchie Viti 2015

The 2015 Barbaresco Montefico Vecchie Viti is a great example of this site. Iron, smoke, crushed rocks, sage, mint and licorice bring out the wilder, savory side of this Barbaresco vineyard. Firm and muscular in the glass, with striking depth, the 2015 has so much to offer. It does need at least a few years in bottle to be at its best.Galloni

Roagna Barbaresco Asili Vecchie Viti 2015

Nebbiolo from Barbaresco, Piedmont

Roagna Barbaresco Asili Vecchie Viti 2015

The 2015 Barbaresco Asili Vecchie Viti lifts from the glass with striking aromatics. Then again, that's Asili. Sweet red berry fruit, mint, blood orange, cinnamon and star anise form a gorgeous latticework of aromas and flavors. The 2015 is gracious, light on its feet and full of Asili seduction, but with that extra kick if tannic bite that is such a Roagna signature. It will be even better once those tannins soften a bit further.Galloni

Bruno Giacosa Barbaresco Asili 2022

The Bruno Giacosa 2022 Barbaresco Asili is hitting the market now. It was bottled on the 15th of July, 2024. This elegant wine shows the finely tuned and nuanced essence of Asili with its fine soils. It opens to a bright ruby color and delivers chalky tannins that retain their tension and grippy feel. On the close, you get hints of violets and blue flower. This is a very terroir-driven wine, but it needs more time in bottle to fully express itself. There will be a red label, or Riserva, made in

Pinot Noir from Volnay, Côte du Beaune

Domaine Jean-Marc et Thomas Bouley Volnay 1er Cru Les Clos des Chênes Vielles Vignes 2022
