BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO Podere Giodo di Carlo Ferrini 2012

The 2012 Brunello di Montalcino is starting to show its maturity as earth tones and hints of dark chocolate give way to plum sauce and grilled herbs. It's silky smooth, nearly fleshy in feel, with cool-toned acidity to balance ripe red and black fruits that drench the palate in primary concentration. The 2012 maintains energy yet shows a bit of heat toward the close, finishing long and gently tannic with a sour citrus tinge that leaves the mouth watering. I would err on the side of caution and drink my bottles sooner than later. That said, there's a lot of pleasure to be found here.

CÔTE RÔTIE Les Schistes Domaine Clusel-Roch 2019

Lieux-dits La Viallière, Champon, Le Plomb and Montmain, aged for 12 months in barriques, 15% new. Lush, open, welcoming style, plenty of fruit and fairly loose knit tannins. Plenty of them. Just a little soft on the finish. Very pleasurable, drink young.
