Abbazia di Novacella 2023 Kerner
$21.99 – $108.00Alto Adige Valle Isarco Italy
Vinous 91 Rating
The 2023 Kerner is delicately floral in the glass. Sweet spice and candied lime open in the bouquet. Vibrant acidity, saline minerals and tart citrus add a zesty character throughout. The 2023 reverberates with tension through a long, cheek-puckering finale laced with chamomile and lemon zest.

Antinori 2020 Guado al Tasso Bolgheri Superiore
$134.99 – $720.00Bolgheri Italy
Wine Advocate 96 Rating
The Marchesi Antinori 2020 Bolgheri Superiore Guado al Tasso sees Cabernet Franc at over 30% of the blend in this vintage, with the rest going to Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% to 20% to Merlot. Matarocchio was not produced this year, and this wine benefits from the extra Cabernet Franc as a result. The 2019 and 2021 vintages of Guado al Tasso are quite concentrated and rich, whereas 2020 is leaner in texture, along the lines of the edition we saw made in 2010. There was rain in September. Managing Director Renzo Cotarella says he would not describe 2020 as a hot vintage because the rain did pose challenges at the end of the growing season. In Bolgheri on the Tuscan coast, budbreak is earlier than in other appellations, and the growing season is longer as a result. This is a benefit to the international varieties used here. The wine shows nice richness and intensity. The Cabernet Franc definitely comes through and adds the characteristic vertical lift and linearity that the grape is known for. You get black fruit, spice, white pepper and no signs of bitter stems or bramble. Sweet, almost milky tannins are interlocked with fresh acidity to give this wine good cellaring potential. The new oak was dialed back a bit in this vintage. SPBX-6

Antinori 2020 Solaia
$399.99 – $2,100.00Tuscany Italy
Antonio Galloni 97 Rating
The 2020 Solaia is an infant. I expected a more exuberant wine, but the 2020 is built along more classic lines. Black cherry, plum, gravel, incense, smoke, pencil shavings and spice all open effortlessly. As always, Solaia is a Cabernet Sauvignon-based wine, but it is a Cabernet that is distinctly Italian, with plenty of Tuscan acid and structure driving through the mid-palate and into the finish. The 2020 is a terrific example of the recent stylistic shift at Antinori. In the past, richness and opulence were qualities of a vintage that would have been amplified in the vineyard and cellar. Today, the aim is to capture a more balanced expression of these kinds of vintages, and that very much comes through. SPBX-6

An aromatic nose with fresh flowers, herbs, almonds, pears and a touch of nougat. Medium body with bright acidity. Good minerality combined with a zestiness to the mid-palate giving it vibrancy and character. Plenty of lemon notes towards the salivating finish. Drink or hold.

Barbanera 2019 Gigino 80th Anniversario Toscana IGT
$29.99 – $168.00Tuscany Italy
It comes in the glass of an intense ruby red color with purple veins. The nose is a riot of blueberry, wild blackberry and fruit in alcohol, followed by elegant spicy hints of vanilla and white chocolate. The sip is structured and persistent, with a clear reference to the sensations perceived by the nose.
