BAROLO Bricco Boschis Roccheviberti 2020
This Barolo entices with the exotic aroma of palo santo, sweet and savory spices, and candied cherries on the nose, like a clove and ginger cake for the senses. The palate is round and inviting, showcasing ripe cherries, plums, and blackberries, balanced by dusty tannins. Complexity unfolds with spices, fruit, and aromatic woods, creating a harmonious and elegant wine that impresses and delights.
GIGONDAS Les Hautes Garrigues Domaine Santa Duc 2020
My Christmas wine this year will be the Domaine Santa Duc Gigondas Les Hautes Garrigues 2020. It is a bottle I have kept in the cellar for over a year now, since I bought it while waiting for the right occasion. This wine is robust and intense, so a little aging is often beneficial to achieve greater harmony and integration. It is a complex wine made from 50 percent mourvedre and 50 percent grenache from old vines, aged in large casks and clay amphorae, mostly whole-bunch fermented, and biodynamically grown. I tasted it on another occasion last year, and I can imagine how it will have evolved by now. It will pair perfectly with the truffled venison stew I will be cooking for Christmas lunch. Harmony through complexity and a touch of patience. Merry Christmas! Kevin Davy, Tasting Manager James Suckling.com's staff Christmas picks.
