Cune Imperial Rioja 2012
Cune Imperial Gran Reserva 2012 is a mature, classical Rioja from exceptional sites in Rioja Alta. It opens with blackberry, dried cherry, cedar, tobacco, vanilla, leather and warm spice, while the palate brings together ripe dark fruit, savoury earth and fresh mineral lift.
Tempranillo-led and gracefully evolved, it is structured without heaviness, with polished tannins and a long, persistent finish. Decant for roasted meats, grilled lamb or aged hard cheeses.
Reverdito 2016 Barolo Badarina
A beautifully evolved Barolo with complex aromatics of dried cherry, red currant, and rose petal layered with tar, tobacco, leather, and sweet spice. The palate is refined and expressive, showing fully integrated tannins, lifted acidity, and a core of mature Nebbiolo fruit that now leans into savoury, earthy depth rather than primary intensity. Long and harmonious on the finish, with lingering notes of orange peel, dried herbs, and mineral nuance that speak to both site and vintage character.
Marquis D’Alesme 2018 Margaux
55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, and 5% each of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot aging in 65% new oak
96 Points, Robert Parker: Deep purple-black in color, it leaps from the glass with bold, expressive black cherries, warm plums, crème de cassis and red roses scents with touches of baking spices, potpourri and fragrant earth. Full-bodied, rich and opulent, it completely fills the palate with hedonic black fruit preserves and spices, framed by firm, velvety tannins and finishing with fantastic length.
95 Points, Wine Spectator: Gorgeous mouthfeel right from the first sip, with a velvety, fine-grained texture that lets the range of dark plum, black currant and blackberry fruit flavors splay out without losing focus, while mouthwatering black tea, alder and mineral notes wait gracefully in reserve, showing just a hint, for now, of what they can do on the finish.
