Outstanding Barbera d’Asti with my friend Cristiano on my last day in Italy: paired it with bagna cauda, topinambur, pepper, celery, salame al Barolo, prosciutto crudo, tuma from the mountains and vitello tonnato — a year ago

From a Tutto spec sheet: A blend of roughly equal parts of Verdeca from Cristiano’s vineyards, along with a little Fiano and Malvasia from an old organic vineyard in Gioia. The grapes are macerated as whole bunches for a week before being pressed off for a short élevage in porcelain amphorae. A beautiful shade of peach in the glass, this is wonderfully floral and impresses with plush stone fruits, a hint of tannin and a clean, mineral finish.

Stable, clean, textured, very elegant and balanced. — 2 years ago

Complex. A bit unfocused. Initial forward tartness retreated after a while, but there was a bitter note, kinda cherry stones/bitter almonds, that remained unintegrated into the whole picture. — 3 months ago

In reality it is a Blanc de Blanc. Excellent. We had it at Osteria Libera in Alba with Davide, Lilly, Ferruccio, Luca and Cristiano. Memorable! — a year ago

Almost a year since my first Joshua Cooper wine and probably at the same restaurant at Burleigh Heads. Unlike last year’s note, the Ray-Monde is made from fruit sourced from Gippsland, not their home base of Macedon Ranges. Mid Ruby in colour with noticeable whole bunch influence - a light peppery note. A stalky bunchy dried cherry perfume. This wine walks the line perfectly between fruit (red and black cherry) and savoury characters. 33 year old Joshua Cooper is almost considered a natural winemaker. The only thing he adds is sulphur dioxide. His wines are now featuring on some of the leading Restaurant Lists in Australia and @Ceccherini Cristiano has posted previously when he was a Sommelier in Melbourne. Worth seeking out but unlikely to be found away from Australia. Winner of the Young Winemaker of the year in 2020 by Gourmet Traveller wine magazine. — 2 years ago

Crisp Easy Oaky, lightly smoked, toasted vanilla, ripe strawberry fruit, herbs, leather, licorice and tobacco… Crianza full package at this price point ??? Mind blowing … This mature Tempranillo doesn’t show his age at all … This is the Cristiano Ronaldo of Wines. — 2 years ago
