BARBARESCO Riserva Sottimano 2013
The Sottimano 2013 Barbaresco Riserva is dense and explosive right out of the gate. Rich dark fruit, kirsch, blood orange, cloves, licorice and leather power through. The Riserva, a selection of old-vine fruit from Cottá and Pajorè is a big wine that, in 2013, captures the house style of the era, a time when the wines were marked quite a bit by French oak and just as Sottimano was beginning to experiment with longer macerations. As such, it is a wine that belongs to a previous era here. Over the last few months the elements have started to come together nicely.
NUITS SAINT GEORGES Vignes Centenaires 1er Cru La Richemone Domaine Christophe Perrot-Minot 2017
The 2017 Nuit-Saint-Georges La Richemone Vieilles Vignes "Cuvée Ultra" has an attractive bouquet of <em>sous-bois</em> and tobacco-infused red berry fruit, very elegant in style and nicely focused. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, a subtle marine influence and a tang of sour cherry and brine toward the persistent finish. Excellent.
