Domaine Jean Grivot - Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2020 (750ml) Sangiovese

Domaine Jean Grivot - Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2020 (750ml) SangioveseDark black purple in colour, ultra concentrated in the rich ripe raspberry mode, but not over the top. What an incredible concentration of fruit on the palate! Super dark raspberry, firm Clos Vougeot tannins but not overdone, just the right acidity. This is certainly a very good wine, and may develop into something even more spectacular.

and dried tobacco

with touches of hazelnut emerging with time

and the stones (undeniably present) can wait

Another powerhouse from Philippe Melka 2013 Gandona is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and shows great purity of fruit and place

our 2016 Russian River Valley (Old Wente clone) Chardonnay comes off with another hedonistic style

yet saline and savoury through the finish

with vibrant black currant and black cherry preserve flavors laced with streaks of violet

this wine displays lovely stone fruit aromas
