Conseillante other_regionsStill holding on to its last gasp of youth here, this might be a slightly more masculine Pomerol. The soaring aromatics are in play here. Full bodied, concentrated and with depth of flavor, the wine offers a structured wall of ripe, sweet, plum, cherry and truffle, along with a lot of tannin for a Pomerol of this age. Granted, this was from a magnum, so that should be taken into consideration. Still, I would give it a few more years to see where it

Conterno-Fantino's 1999 Barolo Sorì Ginestra is quite a bit richer and deeper than the Vigna del Gris

with all the components in very good balance

The refined yet tautly muscled flavors possess good detail and plenty of punch before culminating in a dusty and mouth coating finish of grand cru depth and persistence

This is very “Chambollesque” in style and should drink well young as well as reward 8 to 10 years of cellaring

Lots of fun for claret lovers now

the Molsino is not as expressive as the Valferana

you could broach this 2004 Larcis Ducasse now

some of this wine’s elements

but I imagine it will remain a brute for quite some time beyond that

tangerine peel and spice nuances

The very deep garnet-purple colored 2018 Maya is shy and restrained to begin
