St. Supéry Estate Vineyards

Dollarhide Elevation Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Strong aromas of oak and dark berries. Deep and rich, balance of oak and fruit is perfection. Wish I’d grabbed a few more of this one! Divine! — a month ago

G.D. Vajra

Bricco delle Viole Barolo Nebbiolo 2020

Light reddish in color with light intensity, and fresh red fruits on the nose.

Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.

Dry on the palate with mild complexity.

Showing red currants, cherries, strawberries light wood, spices, coffee and dark chocolates.

Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a delicious Barolo. Still very young and needs time to mature properly.

Elegant and rich. Fresh, easy drinking, and already enjoyable, even by itself. Showing nice complexity and mouthfeel.

Needs time to open up properly, so be patient. Good by itself or with food.

Would be nice to revisit it in 10 years.

100% Nebbiolo grapes were grown at 1,200 feet of elevation. Vines are 40 to 90 year old vines. Aged for 42 months in large Slavonian wood barrels.

14% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$120.

Domaine Romaneaux-Destezet (Hervé Souhaut)

Sainte Epine Syrah 2018

Firing on day 1 and a mousy mess by day 3. Found the extraction and balance quite interesting considering vintage and winemaking technique. A sunnier expression but true to form for Hervé. Perhaps the elevation of St. Epine escaped some of the warmth? — 3 years ago

Almost totally opposite of the Gargiulo G Major 7 Cab. Smoky, earthy, floral, barnyard nose with a huge French influence on the palate. Not a style for everyone but I loved it. Medium plus depth and long finish. — 2 years ago
