Ripe and luscious, with smashed boysenberries and candied lavender. Acidity leans into its broad, juicy frame, meeting some of the variety’s highest standards.
Apricots are vibrant, with melon and honey following for this blend of 65% Chambourcin and 35% Seyval Blanc. Acidity keeps a fresh watch, surrounding a stony mid-section bursting with flavor.
The wow factor is ignited by a grassy aroma along with freshly squeezed grapefruit. Sparked with bristling acidity, flavors of honeyed pears and orange blossom come to life, seasoned with chervil and rosemary. It delivers a racy character with oodles of inner sunshine.
Nebbiolos from the broader Langhe region aren’t as complex as Barolo or Barbaresco—but neither are they as astringent or woody when newly released. This outstanding example of the breed shows the class of the grape variety with subtle florals recalling violets and roses, following up with delicious fruit similar in flavor to Morello cherries and red raspberries.
An excellent rendition of Arneis from Roero, an appellation just across the Tanaro River from Alba, Barolo, and Barbaresco, this offers very nicely ripened fruit recalling fresh peaches and apricots. Light floral aromas get it off to a very appealing start, and mouthwatering acidity lifts the fruit flavors and energizes the pure and persistent finish.
Peaches and cream teem from the glass with a seductively aromatic profile. There’s a touch of bell pepper paired with ripe papaya, pineapple and kiwi fruit, evoking an endless Caribbean horizon. This is the Belle of any ball and the finish is girded with a citrus kiss.
Voluptuous, with lemon zest and toasted walnut. The rich style speaks to abundant sunshine and sweet oak. Ripe pineapple and baked pear add depth on the finish.
