Barbaresco CN Centoundici, Orlando Abrigo 2018
The Orlando Abrigo Barbaresco CN Centoundici 2018 is the kind of wine that quietly commands attention—elegant, precise, and full of personality. It’s a polished expression of Nebbiolo that captures everything we love about Barbaresco: that fine-boned structure, haunting aromatics, and a graceful depth that unfolds beautifully in the glass. This cuvée is the work of the Abrigo family—modest in scale but rich in tradition and detail. The name “Centoundici” (Italian for one hundred and eleven) tips the hat to the vineyard parcel number, but there’s nothing bureaucratic about what’s in the bottle. This is Nebbiolo at its most charming—lifted and floral, with notes of wild cherry, rose petal, sweet spice, and a whisper of earth. There’s enough structure to cellar for a few more years, but it’s drinking beautifully now, especially with the right plate—think truffle risotto, slow-roasted lamb, or a wedge of aged cheese. For Club Members who appreciate Nebbiolo with finesse and clarity—this one’s a bit of a gem. It’s Barbaresco with both roots and polish.
Vosne-Romanée, Domaine du Clos Frantin 2021
A classic expression of the village, the Clos Frantin's 2021 Vosne-Romanée is fragrant with red cherries, wild strawberries, a touch of plum and a hint of violets. The palate is silky and pure, with bright red fruit, gentle spice and that trademark Vosne finesse. Polished tannins and a mineral lift keep everything fresh and beautifully balanced, leading to a long, elegant finish. Maison Albert Bichot, a long-established Burgundy négociant and domaine house passed down through six generations since 1831, now manages a collection of individual Domaines, including Domaine du Clos Frantin, one of the standout estates in its stable.
