Domaine Faiveley, Gevrey Chambertin Combe Moines other_regions_italyA classic Gevrey nose of pungent earth, underbrush and a sauvage note to the red and dark berry fruit aromas. There is also a touch of wood that does not affect the transparency of the very rich, fullbodied and minerally flavors that possess ample amounts of mouth coating dry extract that also largely buffer the chewy, serious and dense tannic spine on the long, intense and driving finish. Excellent. (91 93) 2021+

This is an excellent candidate for long cellaring

Like the Clos de Vougeot

wild cherry

Offers fine balance

the wine is medium bodied

Crème de cassis and blackberry aromas sufficient to fill the room emerge on the nose of Sorrel's 2017 Hermitage Le Greal

La Nerthe's 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee des Cadettes is a blend of approximately one-third each Grenache

This has serious spine

It was early days but the wine is honest and pleasing

but in 2015 its Cannubi from the village of Barolo seems even finer

this is going to require at least some patience so that the mid-palate can flesh out

accented by earth and tobacco notes
