Domaine Grosbois Gabare Chinon 2020
Succulent and ripe, offering sweet strawberry and raspberry fruit. The tannins are delectable, coating the palate with a light texture of cocoa powder. It's a harmonious, textural style that's easy to like thanks to its friendly personality. Can be enjoyed now with charcuterie and benefits from a light chill.

Soil: Marl & Limestone
Produced from 25 year old Nebbiolo planted on marl and limestone soils. Grapes are hand harvested and fermentation begins naturally using only indigenous yeasts.

Clos de la Roilette Griffe du Marquis 2016/17
"Lurid ruby. A suave, spice-accented bouquet evokes ripe red/blue fruits and incense, and a smoky mineral flourish adds urgency and lift. Chewy, focused and appealingly sweet, offering densely packed black raspberry, boysenberry and violet pastille flavors that open up slowly with aeration. Shows very good heft, but there's distinct elegance here as well. Closes sappy, youthfully tannic and extremely long, leaving a sexy floral note behind." - 94 Pts. Vinous (2017 Vintage), October 2019
Marques de Vargas Rioja Gran Reserva 2015
Union Wine Co. Alchemist Pinot Noir 2021
2021 - 93 Points, James Suckling:
"This is attractive, with wild strawberries, cocoa-dusted cherries, walnuts and nutmeg. Juicy and pristine on the palate, with medium body, crunchy acidity and sleek cherries and raspberries in the middle. Its both delicate and firm, with a flavorful blue-fruit finish. Drink or hold."
