Shiny Wine

Bricco Maiolica

Langhe Nebbiolo 2021

Pure expression of nebbiolo from le Langhe
Marvellous transparent ruby colour, bright and shiny.
Cherry, talc powder, rose petals and typical lipstick.
Tannin is nearly solved and never disturbing.
Long and pleasant
The good vintage is definitely a plus.

Francis Ford Coppola Winery

Diamond Collection Silver Label Monterey County Pinot Noir 2017

Raspberry-magenta color, shiny and clear. Intense nose of cherry red fruits, raspberry, currant, lavender flowers, and vanilla aging. In the mouth, the bouquet is superbly balanced, adding toasted-oaky notes that directly refer to the Burgundian style. The aromatic relief is not the same, but the whole is very well designed. Perfectly ready to drink.

Très jolie PN californien. Robe framboise-magenta, brillante et limpide. Nez intense de fruits rouges cerise, framboise, groseille, fleurs lavande, et élevage vanillé. En bouche le bouquet est superbement équilibré, ajoutant des notes toastées qui font directement référence au style bourguignon. Le relief aromatique n’est pas le même, mais le vu. Est à l’équilibre, et prêt à boire.

Domaine François Carillon

Les Macherelles Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2019

Young, but accessible. Gun flint nose is instantly seductive descending like smoke onto brioche and twists of impossibly minute lemon peel, lime and tangerine piths, underripe pineapple freshness, Marcona almond, toasted sesame, chalky chunks have absorbed the smoke, and fallen citrus celebrates its rebirth. Lemon pith that oozes lemon skin oils like dewdrop diamonds. Incredible minerality that crystallizes into spines of grapefruit, dandelion, dried gooseberry, and marigold. Shiny, bright, crystal clean, and revelatory. Amazing compilation of parts that remains suspended like a chandelier in ethereal weightlessness.

Bruno Giacosa

Barbera d'Alba 2018

Really enjoyed this. Very polished and shiny, which Giacosa is sometimes criticized for but it was simply a killer wine. Wore its 15% abv extremely well. Didn’t read hot with lamb ragu. Really pretty red fruits, soft tannins, approachable acidity. A delicious wine at Barbalu. — 3 years ago
