    La Lecciaia 2017 Rosso di Montalcino

    Price range: $16.99 through $156.00

    Tuscany Italy
    Rosso is imminently drinkable, with bright cherry, incense and smoky scents. The wine is medium-bodied on the palate, with fine tannins and good acidity to complement the buoyant fruit. While this is totally enjoyable now, it will age nicely for the next seven years.

    You could argue that this wine changed Italian wine, because it was the first to fully embrace the potential of Cabernet Franc in the bel paese. The Le Macchiole 2018 Paleo has a spicy and tangy personality with dark fruit, bitter chocolate and tarry smoke. Coming back to my open bottle 24 hours later, I got some green olive and rosemary essence. The mouthfeel fleshes out considerably, and there is beautiful structure to hold it firmly together. Other vintners in Bolgheri have told me of their difficulties with Cabernet Franc in the 2018 vintage, which saw rain toward the end of the season. This wine feels magically immune to those issues and probably means that the expert vineyard team harvested at the right moment.

    The coppery-hued 2022 Les Cassagnes de la Nerthe Cotes du Rhone Rose features easygoing notes of ripe melon, plus hints of peaches and red berries. Medium-bodied, it's plump and nicely rounded without being overly broad, remaining clean, refreshing and harmonious on the finish.

    Enjoyabilityfactor 92 Rating
    Founded by the owners of Domaine de Chevalier & Stephane Derenoncourt, one of the top winemakers in France, the Clos des Lunes 2022 is no ordinary Bordeaux. Pretty, blackberry, dried-tobacco and herbal aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied, mouth filling flavors and a delicious fruit finish. A blend of 50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc located a stone’s throw from Chevalier’s famed vineyards in Graves. Based on a special selection of vineyard lots handpicked by Deroncourt and vinified by Bernard’s team at Domaine de Chevalier, the Clos des Lunes aims to be little more modern in styling with an excellent quality-price ratio.

    A beautiful minerality brings a lovely character. The palate is round with a finesse offering the aromatic flavors of gingerbread, honey and peach. The finish is persistent and ends on a light and refreshing mineral note. The first notes are very fine, complex and delicate. The aromas of peaches, quince and white flowers follow. Light aeration reveals the delicate scents of exotic fruit. The minerality brings a beautiful equilibrium and harmony.

    An excellent blend with Monastrell, Syrah and Garnacha. Deep and glossy with blackberries, wild spices and mineral. Concentrated but not hefty. Juicy, with a medium-to full-bodied palate enveloped by fresh, chalky tannins. Balance is the key here. Delicious now but can hold.
