Tenuta di Carleone 'Il Guercio' 2022

Tenuta di Carleone ‘Il Guercio’ 2022

Domaine Bouchard Pere et Fils Grand Cru 'Chambertin Clos de Bèze' 2020

A real generosity to the wine. Beautiful secondary characters. Looking forward to trying the 2019."One of the icon wines of Tuscany, the Iso

Flow and shape here is excellent. A blend of 4 terroirs. Vinified separately.
