COTEAUX DU LAYON BEAULIEU Les Rouannières Château de Pierre Bise (50cl) 2022

In 2022 there was no problem achieving good botrytisation and concentration, and it shows in the aromatic profile, which compared to the fruit-led profile of the 2020 vintage presents a more polished and confident array of aromas, a tightly knit aromatic profile filled out with crème caramel, grilled peaches and vanilla cream. All very Pierre-Bise. The palate wraps all this up in a polished and seamless texture, with great substance and considerable weight, supported by pithy energy, a light phenolic bitterness, charming acidity and great length. A super composition, impressive and with potential for the cellar. The residual sugar is 155 g/l and the alcohol on the label is 11.5%.

FINCA DE LOS LOCOS RIOJA Artuke 2023

The graciano stands out, showing a balsamic, peppery edge to the ripe but fresh cherry and plum fruit with a touch of rosemary. Juicy and fine-grained, this has medium to full body and savory, nicely chewy tannins. Solid fruit in the finish. A co-fermentation of tempranillo, graciano and viura. Drink from 2026.
