There is impressive richness to the powerful broad-shouldered flavors that brim with dry extract that does an excellent job of buffering the very firm tannins on the beautifully balanced, long and quite serious finish. This is an excellent example whose only fault lies in being completely overshadowed by its '09 VV counterpart." 2024+

currants that give way to detailed, intense and moderately austere medium-weight flavors that at present display good but not truly special depth on the reasonably persistent finish. This is not showing a great deal at present and while it's not one-dimensional, it's certainly not at the same level as the best of the grands crus. Still, and while it's admittedly only my taster's intuition speaking, I feel as though this will develop much more in time than it's presently showing and my score reflects that optimism." 2024+

meat and smoke. The supple, mouth coating and utterly delicious broad-shouldered flavors possess a silky texture yet there is plenty of power and punch to the very firmly structured finish. While there is a certain delicacy present, this will still need all of 15 years to realize its full potential." 2025+

malolactic fermentation (at the time of this tasting there was a portion of the wine still finishing its malo). The 2010 needs time to find its balance but the raw materials are superb. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2030."
BURGHOUND 91-94 POINTS: "The exceptional freshness of the 2010 vintage is more than apparent here with a restrained and cool nose of intensely earthy red and dark berry fruit aromas that also display forest floor and humus notes. There is outstanding concentration to the extract-rich broad-shouldered flavors that display plenty of power and muscle on the impressively persistent finish. This is a big wine yet it carries its size and weight effortlessly in large part because of the fine mid-palate concentration and relatively fine grain of the tannins."

in the acclaimed Colchagua Valleyof Chile. Cono Sur started the Pinot Noir Project in 1999. The idea was to produce the best Pinot Noir in Chile.Later, that goal evolved into creating a world quality Pinot Noir, true to Burgundian tradition but also maintaining theexpression of its New World roots. This is a voluptuous Pinot Noir with rich fruit notes of cherry, raspberry, plumand strawberry - enhanced by subtle smoked hints. Sweet fruit notes stand out, fine tannins give it a great textureand a mouthfilling structure. Balanced and New World-styled, this is a wine of personality and elegance.

sparkling wines. In fact it was the only Italian sparkler on the wine list of the Titanic. Its “For England” designation harkens back to the 1800s when the English led the way in demanding dry finished bubbly. The grapes for this rosé are all Pinot Noir, grown on limestone soils and re-fermented in the bottle. It is aged on the lées for four years before being riddled by hand and disgorged all with the aim of producing a silken texture, a fine bead and a gentle, deep mousse. The palate is a mix of red and blue fruit with raspberry and strawberry comfit blending with notes of acacia, marzipan and delicate touches of ginger. We recently found out than one of Piedmont’s most quality obsessed winemakers, Giorgio Rivetti from La Spinetta, took over the winemaking and soon thereafter purchased the property. It’s easy to see why Giorgio was so enthusiastic about acquiring this historic winery--the textures and depth of flavor here are a sure bet to make your Thanksgiving one for the ages.

best suited to each varietal. This one is sourced from specific sites within Monterey. The smallest of these vineyards lies on the eastern side of the Salinas Valley, where its loamy sand soils provide ideal drainage, thus adding to the concentration and density of the wine. The largest vineyard is just below the Santa Lucia Highlands, enjoying coastal fog and Pacific breezes that allow for a long growing season.

Silky and pure on entry, then very intense but not yet especially complex in the middle palate, with lovely definition to the flavors of red berries and sweet spices.
