2019 Brunello di Montalcino, Poggio di Sotto, Tuscany, ItalyA selection of the estates oldest vines, natural fermentation was carried out in traditional large Slovenian oak with one month infusion on skins. 36 months in botti, and 5 months in cement which soothes the tannic charge pre bottling Incredible clarity and purity on nose, wild mint, rose and a smoky kirsch essence. The palate is compact and energetic, with the translucent crushed raspberry and peach skin fruit core, saline rocky details, mentholated

there is more spice here

the 2011 Canon is a nominal blend of mostly Merlot with 25-30% Cabernet Franc brought up in a mix of new and used French oak

with four new cuvées this year

resulting in wines of unique character

sweet black fruits and creamy texture create a wonderful palate

through which the year’s bright freshness glitters like a quartz lode

This is a lovely Volnay wine that should offer up to a decade of development potential

Drink 2022 - 2045

with a concentrated perfume of incense

This vintage

the grape juice before fermentation was so fragrant that the vat room was already full of the smell of blackberries and raspberries

Brisk purple in colour
