Chateau Beru, Chablis Cote Aux Pretres other_regions_italyNA

The 2013 Amarone della Valpolicella Monte Lodoletta is my favorite wine in the retrospective

a wonderfully broad array of spice elements

serious and dense tannic spine on the long

The 2014 Barolo Cannubi is one of the more potent wines in this range

The finer middle weight flavors possess a refined texture before culminating in a plush yet reasonably precise finale on the mildly tangy finish

Giving up terrific notes of blackberries

length and complexity in the long and endlessly salty finish

It is concentrated and powerful with real intensity of flavor

fat and concentrated

There is more volume to the sleekly muscular medium weight flavors that are at once refined yet powerful while delivering slightly better depth and length

citrus and dried apple

beautifully ripe and intense fruit aromas intertwined with herbal and quartzite terroir notes that represent the less well known iron content of the red loam soils in the deeper layers of the Schloss Johannisberger grand cru
