Expression 44*

Saxum Vineyards

James Berry Vineyard 44 Grenache Blend 2007

Very big and rich. A slightly active shrill thing on the nose. Very rich plum and cherry. Roses and violets. A beast but rounded and under control. A bit much for my taste but it has some balance and purity that is admirable — 23 days ago

La Chapelle Hermitage Syrah 2014

Spectacular expression of northern Syrah. Inky but approachable. Smaller tannins. Lots of youth but excellent to share now. — 2 years ago

Expression de Granite Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine Melon de Bourgogne 2018

Nice minerality, subdued lemon, a hint of oyster like salinity and more body than you’d expect from a Muscadet. — 2 years ago

Stella di Campalto Podere San Giuseppe

Riserva Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2012

Along with the majestic 2010 one of my favorite Stella vintages. So giving right off the bat, never any heat, just so fresh and clean. Amazing expression of Sangiovese. — 2 years ago

Produttori del Barbaresco

Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2019

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of two days. Best on Day 2. The 2019 pours a pale garnet color with a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of Morello cherries, red roses, tangerine, pomegranate, talcum powder, dried sage, truffle, and dried stony earth. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and savory. A lovely expression of 2019 Barbaresco. Drink now with patience and through 2049. — 10 months ago
