Giacomo Fenocchio's Barolo Bussia Riserva has very long, natural maceration and fermentation using only indigenous yeasts. The result is a noble and demanding wine that is produced without forcing, following the time of the grape and its rules.
The Riserva Bussia is produced at 300 metres above sea level, on soil rich in clayey, calcareous and iron-rich sediments, on vines over 30 years old. This is a Barolo Riserva that spends 3 years in large Slavonian oak barrels.
In the glass it is a beautiful, intense garnet red and offers complex aromas of red fruit and a spicy, intense finish.
It is elegant in nature, rich and velvety. It is a great wine, produced by a great producer.
Absolutely worth trying.
Domaine de Montille's 1er Cru Beaune Les Sizies is named after the 18th century owner of the Maison, Renaud de Sessie, a great entrepreneur of the time. Like any other area of Burgundy, the soil plays a fundamental role in defining the wine and here in Beaune the clayey soil gives us a Premier Cru of great pleasantness and balance.
It can also be drunk young, but it has an immense capacity for ageing and can be drunk in 15 to 20 years.
The 2018 Nicolucci Predappio Vigna del Generale Riserva shows a transparent and brilliant ruby red colour. The nose plunges into a bed of voluptuous sensations that recall the undergrowth, through scents of raspberries, blueberries, wild cherries and sloes, among whiffs of ferns, sandalwood bark and cinchona. This is followed by dark tobacco, coffee and chocolate, a memory of black rye bread and hints of graphite and iron. Flexuosity is the key to understanding the taste, caressed by silky tannins and invigorating acidity. There is a long, pseudo-caloric sensation in the finish, reminiscent of red fruit chocolate. Matures 24 months in oak casks and 3 months in the bottle.
The 33 Vendemmie of Castellare di Castellina is a blend of three great wines produced by Castellare composed by 35% I Sodi di San Niccolò, 33% Poggio ai Merli, and 32% Coniale. I Sodi di San Nicolò, Poggio ai Merli and Coniale: the best of the company's production unites in a blend, to give origin to a sip of great character, in which consistency and power harmonize with refinement and elegance.
What we find in the glass is a red of great level, which is aligned with the high standards of all other labels branded Castellare di Castellina. It rests for two long years in French oak barriques, and is completed with 18 months of bottle ageing.
A wine not to be missed!
