Woods, woods, & autumnal woods.
Light brown/reds abound. Cherries and leather and dead leaves, trees. Definitely a wine that hasn’t been futzed with. Gulpable as L.F. is known do say.
Hits those casual Nebbiolo notes across the spectrum, perfect w left over Sunday gray and ravioli.
Thanks @FassSelections

Domaine Jean-Jacques Girard

Clos du Roi 1er Cru Beaune Pinot Noir 2023

Lyle Fass

One of the best Girard 23’s. First time since April and it’s just as I remember. What a wine. Lush, giving cherry nose that just exudes purity and generousness. So inviting. Palate is lush and generous with unreal fruit. Black cherry, red cherry, blackberry. So dense, so explosive and fresh. Gorgeous, diamond cut tannins. Unreal wine. Wow. — a month ago

This wine is almost clear in the glass. The bubbles come up quickly and disappear soon, too. The nose is yeasty and earthy, with a big mineral aspect. The palate shows Meyer lemon, zest, and that yeasty note. — 6 months ago

Spanna Colline Novaresi Nebbiolo 2019

Wow, this is spectacular! Plenty of life ahead of it, too. The wine is a very pale brick color. It is fresh and vibrant, but beautifully complex. Red sour cherries, juicy and acidic, leather, mint, a little dust on the rose petals. Medium plus on the tannins. I would love to have this with a lot more age. Should be a great wine for a charcuterie spread, and at $19 I feel like a highway robber.

@Dave, I knew zippo about this producer until maybe 16-18 years ago. There was an importer/retailer east of California where I purchased bottles of 1996/2000/2003 Vallana wines, I have a few left, but they seem somewhat immortal (I guess Nebbiolo is the key). I also purchased four vintages of the early 2000s Wynns Black Label Cabs from the same source (all sub-US$15), which I thoroughly enjoyed — @Bob McDonald could fill in on what a bargain those wines always are!!!

@Doug Powers , your stories never disappoint, and I don't know how you can remember so many wines with such clarity. I can barely remember what I've had this year without looking at my notes.

@Doug Powers You are right Doug. Wynns Black Label Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the world’s great wine bargains. Can’t remember exactly but now with a heritage of over 50 vintages.
