Domaine Bouchard Pere et Fils Grand Cru 'Chambertin Clos de Bèze' 2019
"Here too there is just enough wood present to remark upon mingling with the equally spicy nose that features notes of plum, various dark berries, exotic tea and hints of game. The sleek, cool and restrained larger-scaled flavors are finer still while flashing no lack of power and drive that really builds toward the intensely saline-suffused finish. This is very classy juice that should age effortlessly for the next two decades."Allen Meadows, Burghound

Vietti Barolo 'Monvigliero' 2021

Vietti Barolo ‘Monvigliero’ 2021

Nebbiolo | Verduno, Barolo

This is the baby in the bunch, representing one of the newest additions to the Vietti portfolio, with the first vintage produced in 2018. The learning curve in Monvigliero is always steep, or so most winemakers tell me, because very few can go to 100% whole-cluster fermentation.

Vanguardist Grenache Mourvèdre Rosé 2022
🧠+❤️= 💯

Vanguardist Grenache Mourvèdre Rosé 2022

Rosé Blend | South Australia, Australia

"Pale spicy, dusty and gently earthy, fennel and pink grapefruit, redcurrant, fruit a little down low, texture up. Very zesty, a lot of pink grapefruit and bloody orange, tangy, quite bony, fine dusty texture and grip. though a gentle creaminess to it, and savoury too, lots of sappy and citrus flavours on a long finish. It seems to be built for ageing, though you can serve it now too, cool but not cold! Drink: 2024-2034"Gary Walsh TWF 94 Points
