I Custodi

Atneus Etna DOC Nerello Blend 2015

The flagship old vines bottling of this estate, it livened up an otherwise rather dull corporate holiday dinner. No detailed notes as I’m catching up on old posts but it was absolutely stunning, notably earth and mineral driven. — 5 months ago

Brut Trento DOC Chardonnay

Delectable Wine
9.1

Distinctly savory, the NV Brut Trentodoc opens with a blend of dusty dried flowers, cardamom and freshly sliced pears. It fills the palate with a silken bead of fine bubbles, taking on a salty-to-sweet sensation as tactile mineral tones mix with ripe orchard fruits. This finishes with admirable length and candied citrus twang, tapering off remarkably fresh. I love the balance and complexity here, especially for a Non-vintage Brut. Disgorged: 2023. (Lot# 23093/24E) (Eric Guido, Vinous, December 2023)
