Bourgogne Rouge, Domaine Duroché 2021
Domaine Duroché's 2021 Bourgogne Rouge is a deep cerise wine with rich, dark red fruit on the nose. It has lovely density and a velvety persistence, leaving a rich, smooth finish. 5th generation winemaker Pierre Duroché needs no introduction these days, having been propelled into the very front ranks of Burgundy’s most sought-after growers. Wines with incredible purity of fruit, racy minerality, and no shortage of tension, vibrancy and energy. His top wines have received more than a few perfect scores – a rarity in Burgundy – and unsurprisingly demand dwarves supply, so much so that our only complaint with Duroché is that there never is enough wine!
Familia Nin-Ortiz, Priorat Planetes De Nin 2016
Família Nin Ortiz are among Priorat's quieter obsessives - working tiny parcels of old-vine Grenache and Carignan on the region's famous llicorella schist, and doing very little else besides letting the land speak. Planetes de Nin is their entry point into that conversation, but don't be misled by the positioning: this is a serious, structured red with real depth and an almost iron-willed grip that is pure Priorat. Think dark fruit pressed hard against volcanic rock, with dried wild herbs and a finish that seems to drag slate along with it. The 2016 vintage in Priorat was one of the more balanced in recent memory - enough warmth for ripeness, enough freshness to keep the wine from tipping into excess.
