It is not only the old stumps but also the clonal diversity and biodiversity, which is the reason for the exceptional complexity of wines from such vineyards. The above, combined with the slow natural vinification and the Tatsis brothers' non-intrusive approach to the winery, result in a wine that has excellent layering and multiple layers in the glass....
You get exactly what you expect from your favorite Bordeaux. Robust character of black fruits combined with earthy notes, tobacco leaves, spicy, pungent character and a minerality that resembles graphite. Subtle and refined on the palate but in the same time complex with depth of fruit. Such a great structure will help the wine to age with grace. Sincere...
Almost explosive in the nose. Lime and herbs over ripe honeyed fruit and intense mineral notes reminiscent of stone. Citrus freshness on the palate which has tremendous depth and complexity leading to a long honeyed finish. Stunning “chewy” texture and dominant minerality that vibrates the palate in a wine that will age “upshifting” giving ultimately...
Perfect, multidimensional, with great flexibility in character, La Farra Prosecco Rose is the equivalent of a comfort food in the kitchen. Simple, easy, delicious, wonderful as an aperitif, ideal to quench your thirst in the afternoon or add it as a base to fresh cocktails, even to combine it with food. It comes from vineyards in the Treviso region and is...
Exquisitely lively without being austere with red fruit aromas like framboise, strawberry and noted of toast, brioche and butter. 10% Chardonnay is added to the blend in order to reduce the power of Pinot Noir on the palate where you get exceptional spicy character and a small hint of tannins. Minerality and acidity seem etched with a laser-like precision...
Made like champagnes, from biodynamically grown vines and nearly two years of contact with the lees after fermentation in the bottle, Jo Landron's Atmospheres is a blend of 36% Folle Blanche, 33% Pinot Noir and 31% Chardonnay. Yeast character, earthy notes and super dry mouthfeel in a wine that drinks like a wine two and three times more expensive than it...
The bouquet offers a beautiful and expressive combination of red and dried fruit, spicy characters given by the sour black and earthy notes. The wine has acidity and tannins with beautiful concentration in the fruit, it is absolutely typical of the variety and even more so of its production zone, and despite the youth of the vines it has evolved...
For more structure and minerality turn to Marcel Lapierre's Morgon, but here, from the family's second estate (which after Marcel Lapierre's death is run by his wife with Jean Claude Chadunet) you will taste a more accessible, fruity example of Beaujolais typical of the cru of Brouilly. The wine is produced from old vines, which are grown using organic...
