There’s lots of Chenin between here and Santa Barbara, but there is good reason to traverse all those miles. Of all the sites with which the winery works, Jurassic Park, planted on its own roots on quartz sand atop lime- stone in the late 1970s exhibits the most vintage variation, and small variations create very strong signals in the wine. Some years lean toward the lithe and appley; some towards the exotic; some toward the saline and chalky.
Selected Cabernet Franc grapes are aged in small oak barrels for two years to create this deep and hearty vintage Port. Flavors of toffee, chocolate, and ripe cherry make this a perfect after-dinner accompaniment to fruit, dessert, and coffee.
Very delicate destemming and crushing to preserve the integrity of the grapes followed by a first fermentation in october for 8-10 days at controlled temperature (21-22°C). A second "Ripasso" refermentation (on the skins of Amarone in February/March. Ageing in barrels of 25 HL (70%) and in barriques (30%) or one year. Dry, warm, full bodied and intense wine.
René Rostaing has been producing high-quality Syrah and Viognier in the Northern Rhone for over 25 years. The property is comprised of 14 lieux-dits, scattered over 20+ hectares, with vines ranging in age from 60-100 years.
Medium-gold in color. Aromas of key lime, peach, and lemon pith. Medium-full bodied on the palate, with a refreshing acidic grip. Aged in barrel for 12 months before being racked to concrete and stainless steel for an additional 8 months of aging before bottling.
Juicy dark fruits, bramby berries, and succulent cherries cavort on a bed of licorice, potpourri, saddle leather, incense and sweet baking spices in this supple, superb ’01 Recioto. While this wine suffuses your mouth with flavors and textures, it’s nonetheless remarkably nimble; there’s nothing weighty about this silky, outrageously good dessert wine – it’s a knockout!
Everything begun fifteen years ago in the ”Fossa di Lupo” area. A place where the land in the evening becomes redish and is brushed by the Ibleian winds and leans on one side of a road: the County Road 68. A county road like many others, but with a special past.
This is a lovely estate, one of the last remaining properties in the Mérignac gravel area, lying next door to Haut Brion and Pape-Clément. The name Caillou refers to pebbles, reflecting the fact that this was once riverbed, when the river Garonne overflowed millions of years ago. The characteristic elegance and finesse of this wine is attributed to its free-draining, gravelly soil and subsoil. Sadly the quantities of white produced are tiny as the wine is lovely.
Founded in 1987, Domaine Henri Magnien is a small family estate, with 6 hectares, located in Gevrey-Chambertin.
