HOME CHARDONNAY Chardonnay Black Estate 2020
The 2020 Chardonnay Home is perhaps not one for the conventional Chardonnay drinker who wants their classically styled Burgundian expression, but more for the organic Chenin lover. Made with a delicate hand, this organic, low-intervention wine (no yeast added, no fining, no filtration) provides a more artisanal interpretation of the variety, featuring gentle, ripe apple and melon flavors. Despite the barrel fermentation and maturation, the wood is a nutty background note. This has excellent weight and depth on the midpalate, reflecting the low yields on the clay-based, 5-hectare vineyard. Its texture really lures you in over the course of a glass. Enjoy now to six years.
ROSSO DI MONTALCINO Collemattoni 2023
A very expressive nose of red fruit with touches of violets and almonds leads into a firmly structured palate with tannins which at present are a little unyielding, but the fruit concentration on the finish holds promise for the future. One to wait for, from an estate in the warm southwest of the commune, owned and run by a husband and wife team of oenologists.
