Giovanni Sordo Barolo 2013

Giovanni Sordo Barolo 2013

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Museum release. Direct from the cellars landed end 2024.I've had the pleasure of devouring most of the 2013 Crus from Sordo, but never the Barolo Classico until now. A great summary of this vintage. This wine typically has a significant La Mora component and it shows in the pure, plush red fruits of great transparency and lick of chocolate. A wonderful perfume lifts from the glass on opening. Just shifting into a nice place, building secondary development. Layers of earthy, truffled, slatey

Massolino "Parafada" Barolo MAGNUM 2021

Massolino “Parafada” Barolo MAGNUM 2021

Nebbiolo | Serralunga d'Alba, Barolo

Planted in 1957, Parafada was the Massolino family’s first prime parcel in Serralunga. It is still home to their oldest vines.

David Duband Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru ‘Aux Thorey’ 2020

Pinot Noir | Nuits-Saint-Georges, France

"A more restrained but equally pretty nose displays a broad range of floral nuances along with pretty spice nuances on the red and dark currant scents. The sleek and nicely elegant medium-bodied flavors possess a really lovely mouthfeel as well as excellent length on the compact, youthfully austere and balanced finale. Note that this is sufficiently structured to require at least a few years of cellaring before it will be approachable." 2032+Allen Meadows, Burghound ♥ Outstanding

Domaine Faiveley Bienvenues Bâtard Montrachet Grand Cru 2022

Domaine Faiveley Bienvenues Bâtard Montrachet Grand Cru 2022

Chardonnay | Puligny-Montrachet, Burgundy

Mid lemon yellow. Some delicacy, without disputing the imminent power. A pure bench of fresh white fruit, actually this is more about nuances than power, though it maintains energy all the way through, to a fine long finish. Love the tension, and the finesse, while some other versions may be more intense.94-97 Points, Jasper Morris – Inside Burgundy Drink: 2030-2038The 2022 Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru unwinds in the glass with aromas of peach, ripe citrus fruits, white
