Aalto 2015 Tempranillo
$44.99–$239.94

Ribera del Duero Spain

The 2015 Aalto is a gorgeous wine, and even at the retail price of $50, is a value. Loaded with notions of blackberry and cassis fruits, vanilla, graphite, and high-class oak, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, has beautiful concentration, and ripe, polished tannin. It certainly has a modern slant, yet is balanced, has terrific purity, and a great finish. Give it a few years. WBC

Novacella remains a darling winery at Esquin, as every wine they make we love! This classic white is silky and delicate with a nice round melon and pear thread with mountain fresh minerals and white flower aromas. Lovely with white fish, salmon, poultry and salads.

Adriano Marco e Vittorio 2015 Barbaresco Basarin
$22.99–$251.88

Piedmont Italy
4.0 vivino Rating
The Azienda Agricola Adriano Marco e Vittorio farm is located in the heart of the Langhe, at Frazione San Rocco Seno d’Elvio, over the beautiful Alba, producing wines with the unique characteristics of the territory. It is a family-run company that has been producing wine from their own grapes for generations. At the beginning of the 20th century, the grandfather Giuseppe, started cultivating vines. Later on, he purchased a small farm and together with his son Aldo, expanded the family property by planting new vines. The grandsons, Marco e Vittorio, continued this expansion by making and bottling of their own production. The farm has currently an area of 22 hectares of vineyards of Nebbiolo for Barbaresco, Barbera, Dolcetto, Freisa, Sauvignon and Moscato; 8 hectares dedicated to the hazelnuts, typical from the Langhe region; and 10 hectares are divided in meadows, fallow land and forests where the famous White Truffle from Alba can be found.

Firm and chewy, with a gleaming core of apricot-accented blackberry and Szechuan peppercorn flavors that play against the tannins without becoming fazed. Has presence and persistence, but needs cellaring to calm the texture. Best from 2019 through 2024. 3,306 cases made. PRG

Alion by Vega Sicilia 2013 Tempranillo
$417.54

Ribera del Duero Spain
Wine Advocate 94 Rating

The careful selection of the grapes and the work directives even for the purchased grapes has clearly paid off in the 2013 Alión, which has great freshness and perfume. It was cropped from a relatively normal growing season, but with a cold September with some rains that provoked a slight delay in the picking and especially the seed for a severe sorting of the grapes. It's considered a challenging vintage in general, and the bottles produced are slightly less than in the healthier 2012. It's always pure Tempranillo from over 30-year-old vines in different villages: Pesquera, Padilla, Moradillo… It fermented in oak vats with indigenous yeasts after a three-day cold soak, followed by malolactic and 12-14 months in new French barriques. It might be a lighter vintage for Alión, but one that has a subtler profile and harmony. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannins, with a thread of acidity going through its core and lifting it up. An elegant Alión. 260,000 bottles and some larger formats were filled in May 2015. SWS

Alta Pavina 2012 Citius Pinot Noir
$16.99–$179.88

Castilla León Spain

The 2012 Citius Pinot Noir is produced with grapes planted at 1,000 meters altitude; it fermented with some full clusters in stainless steel with malolactic in well-seasoned Burgundy barrels, and underwent a slow and long aging of 18 months. The wine shows quite young, in fact it feels younger than it is, like it's developing quite slowly. There are some traces of toasted sesame seeds and notions of lees over a core of ripe red fruit. The varietal character is shy but seems to be developing with the years. The tannins are fine and there is good freshness and balance, quite fresh for the warm and dry year. A wine that is slowly improving and gaining in character, but still oakier than what I'd like to see. SWS
