Domaine Giacometti

Batolaccio Cru des Agriate Patrimonio Vermentino 2018

A textural beauty - ripe fruit and tons of maquis herbs, with a heavy saline quality and mouthfeel hinting at oiliness. Enjoyed with lunch at Antoine Arena’s house (lucky us). Part of a full Giacometti lineup tasting. — 5 years ago

Gaba do Xil Valdeorras Tinto 2019

Profile naturel, notes de maquis. Un peu d’âge (2019) donc on commence à avoir des arômes d’intérieur cuiré et boisé. Mais on a aussi de l’épice et du poivré, presque du goudronné. Super accompagnement de mets d’intensité moyenne, viande grasse, légume confits — a year ago

9.0

Gran Reserva Cab Franc. Very nice structure, tannic backbone, and dusty fruit balance. Enjoyable and age worthy. — 8 years ago

Lien Colchagua Valley Red Blend 2013

Red and black fruit, has that “it’s South American” extraction, tannin, wood and fruit thing. 60% cab franc, 28% carmeniere, 11% cab sauv. — 9 months ago

Antoine Arena

Carco Patrimonio Nielluccio 2008

Rustic and developed. Stewed plums, medicinal black cherry, maquis herbs, muddy soil, wet stoneware pottery, tobacco and tomato leaf. Palate is intense, concentrated, and shows younger than the nose. 14% alcohol isn’t hiding, but is nearly balanced by silty tannin and juicy acidity. Rounder and darker than the Italian Sangiovese which may or may not be genetically related. Interesting wine, well paired with a casual bolognese style pasta. — 5 years ago

Clos Canarelli

Corse Figari Red Blend 2014

Smoky, chewy, black-fruited, maquis, granite, yet quite refined. A very classy expression of an extreme island terroir. — 8 years ago
