    When I tried Costanti’s 2020 Rosso in 2022, Andrea described the vintage as better suited for Brunello given the high dry extract and sturdy structure. Indeed, his 2020 Brunello is one of the vintage’s anomalies. It possesses rare profundity and decisiveness of tannins. The nose invites with plum blossom, dark currants, mint and an earthy undertow. Upfront tannins are substantial, grainy and crisp, and the sour cherry and cranberry core soars from the depths bringing bitter cocoa, coffee and alpine herbs along for the ride. Juicy acidity rings out and a distinct saltiness permeates the finish. Nevertheless, it is that unwavering backbone that currently commands, promising a long life ahead.

    With a kiss of reduction in its white peach, honeyed flowers, and subtle tangerine notes, the 2023 Viognier Art Den Hoed hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a round, lush mouthfeel, and a clean, light, graceful, incredibly drinkable style. It’s a beautiful, incredibly classy Viognier that I’d happily put side by side with anything from the Northern Rhône. Drink bottles over the coming couple of years.

    A bright red color with orange highlights, the 2020 Brunello Di Montalcino is very pretty, with a delicate rustic hint that I find quite attractive. It reveals attractive red fruit on the nose, with notes of cranberries, wild herbs, and just a subtle hint of saddle leather and blood orange. Mid-weight, it’s light on its feet while delivering wonderful energy and freshness, with snappy ripe red fruit, a refreshing, angular feel, and mouthwatering saline and acidity. This is certainly one of the highlights of the 2020 vintage. Drink 2025-2040.

  • Darioush Signature 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon

    Darioush Signature 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon

    Price range: $149.99 through $690.00

    Napa Valley California
    The 2022 vintage-a pure varietal expression-opens with bold aromas of ripe blackcurrant and crushed blueberries, unfolding into layers of sun-dried fig, black raspberry, and juicy Damson plum. Notes of dark cocoa, spiced sandalwood, and smoked thyme weave through the expansive palate, enhancing its rich, velvety texture. Firm yet polished tannins extend through a satisfying finish, accented by hints of graphite, dried lavender, and a lift of candied orange peel. This sophisticated wine promises to evolve beautifully with cellar age.

    So strong but subtle and silky on the surface and muscular underneath. Very concentrated, tight and powerful, with mineral, iron, cocoa and chalk flavors on a foundation of superfine, powdery tannins. It’s pretty but dense, beautifully concentrated, full-bodied and well balanced.

  • Seghesio Family Vineyards Chardonnay

    This Chardonnay opens with captivating aromas of juicy fresh pineapple, cantaloupe, yellow apple, and apricot, underscored by a light, subtle wisp of oak. On the palate, it delivers a silky entry that gracefully transitions into a muscled, weighty, and creamy mid-palate, showcasing both richness and elegance. An energetic acidity drives the wine toward a long, vibrant finish, with lingering notes of juicy apricot. Balanced and lively, this Chardonnay is a versatile pairing for roast chicken, creamy pasta, or aged Gouda.

    The 2022 Para Maria is a blend of 75% Syrah and 25% Petit Verdot. It has deep aromas of mixed berry jam, spearmint, tar and earth. The medium-bodied palate is lighter on its feet than expected, offering plush tannins, rounded acidity and a long, floral finish. 3,700 cases were made.

    The 2021 comes from a cooler Russian River site and offers a complex bouquet of red currants, smoked earth, ground pepper, and exotic floral and rose hip notes. Rich, medium-bodied, and seamless on the palate, it’s incredibly classy as well as perfectly balanced.

  • Muga Blanco

    Muga Blanco

    Price range: $19.99 through $204.00

    Rioja Spain
    Viura, Garnacha blanca and Malvasía de Rioja. A straw-yellow colour.It has a strikingly intense nose with floral aromas coming to the fore (white flowers, jasmine) together with notes of citrus fruit and apple peel. Complex and seductive. The entry on the palate is very supple with a sensation of ripeness. Interestingly though, on the rest of the palate a minerality and freshness comes though developing into a lively, crisp finish that also makes the wine a good partner for food.
