A highly attractive nose combines notes of both red and black cherry with lovely violet and spice nuances. There is excellent volume and a sophisticated mouth feel to the silky weight flavors where the sophistication is enhanced by the impressively fine-grained tannins, all wrapped in a firm but fine finish.

Size750MLVintage2020SKU30189
The 2016 Chianti Classico Fontodi brings together all the elements that make the Fontodi wines so unique, but with an extra kick of freshness and aromatic intensity that is the result of a year with notable diurnal shifts during the growing season. Dark blue/purplish fruit, lavender, spice and menthol develop in the glass, but it is the wine's extraordinary balance and sheer appeal that stand out most. In time, 2016 may very well become the new benchmark for Fontodi's Chianti Classico. The 2016 is flat-out delicious. That's pretty much all there is to it." 95pts Vinous MediaSean Thackrey Syrah Orion

FRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - POMMARD
Size750MLVintage2011SKU20464
Medium red. Somewhat diffuse red fruit aromas, along with scents of menthol, licorice and minerals. A reticent, slightly shy midweight, this premier cru shows a bit more mid-palate sweetness to support its youthfully though ripe tannins. A solid Pinot with limitless upside potential.Domaine Armand Heitz Pommard 1er Cru "Les Rugiens
FRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - BEAUNE
Size750MLVintage2019SKU24143
During a Pommard dinner. Light ruby,m purplish hue even. Very young and more on the concentrated red and dark fruit than the Clos de Poutures. Very dense palate, remains elegant and light. Competent wine making here. Once the aromas, that are extremely primary now still, develop further, this will be a great Pommard.Bertani Amarone della Valpolicella Classico

A rich and highly charged Poyferre, with creamy damson and vanilla pod spice expanding through the mid palate. Hugely impressive, with velvety tannins and plenty of charcoal, grilled sarments and slate impact.
