Kosta Browne

Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2021

The 2021 never disappoints. Some spice and cinnamon is starting to show. Fantastic!

Vietti

Castiglione Barolo Nebbiolo 2019

Young but already so drinkable. Raspberries and strawberries with massive tannins that will no dount evolve beautifully. Vietti just dont make bad wines...goes against their DNA! — 13 days ago

Domaine Dujac

Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2001

Château Latour

Premier Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2011

Fantastic and seemed even more mature than 13 years. Dark dark but smooth and developed. It’s a focused wine in great balance. No complaints but you can tell it was a bit below the heights for Latour. Double decanted and enjoyed over 4+ hours. — 17 days ago

G.D. Vajra

Albe Barolo Nebbiolo 2019

The Albe always has a reputation for being a well valued Barolo and with this example I have to agree. I do think the 5 years have helped. Pretty classic Nebbiolo perfumed nose. Dried flowers and nice fruit. Some leather. On the less intense side, nice lifting acid on the finish. — 15 days ago
