Valbuena 5° Ribera del Duero Tempranillo Blend 2010
Beautifully complex nose - dark and rich with a hint of fruit on top. On my palate, a wonderful blend of tannin with the traditional Tempranillo notes and undertones. Lovely now and will continue to expand for years. — 7 years ago
Domaine Bruno Clavelier
Vieilles Vignes La Montagne Vosne-Romanée Pinot Noir 2015
Bright, fresh, powerful fruit and, to me, surprisingly open already both the nose and on the pallet.
Alois Lageder
Südtirol-Alto Adige Pinot Noir 2015
I was hopeful on the 2015 Pinot based on how wonderful the 2015 Burgundy I recently had was. The Alto Adige tasted very young, and a bit hot, to my palate. Tight, missing the fruit aromas at opening but improved across the meal. Will likely be much better with some age. — 7 years ago
