Satera

Esse Merlot Red Dry 2016

Пепел и табак, и в аромате, и во вкусе. Аромат дополняется печеной в костре картошкой, такой, до угольков. После выходит слива, ежевика. Нетельное, танинов немного.Очень неплохо в моем восприятии. Прямо вспомнил сезон сбора картошки и огромные костры из сухой ботвы 🔥 — 7 years ago

Ageno Malvasia di Candia Blend 2018

Still nervous after the long trip to Ukraine, but already incredible. Top orange wine, charged with potential. Honey, ginger, forgotten apple that oxidized, dried apricot, and dried medicinal herbs. Good acidity, powerful tannin. Definitely, a wine to buy by cases and drink occasionally to witness its development. By the way, this is my first Ageno of even vintage. — 4 years ago

Cuvée Prestige Brut White Blend 2014

After some time in bottle this wine is much better. It has become amasing Russian sparking made in traditional way. 24 month on the lees in the bottle. Mostly Chardonnay. Very light and elegant sparking...

This wine got a style. Fresh, mineral with notes of red apple, ripe lemon and white peach. Strong acidity and smooth bubbles.

Anyway, this wine is one of the best traditional sparking in Russia. If you have a chance do not miss it to try this.

Pink Muscat 1900

A surprise blind tasting at the end of our meal at Guy Savoy. The somm Andrew Hurley (merci beaucoup!!) blinded me on this one boy was I so wrong! Orange blossom, walnut paste, saffron, ginger candy, cinnamon, nutmeg, fig, etc. etc. And yet so fresh! Great acidity. Great balance despite >400g/L RS. I thought it was like maybe 1976. Oh boy I was 76 years off! Such a treat. This is probably the oldest wine I’ve ever had. — 3 years ago
