David Duband, Haute Cotes Nuits Louis AugusteThere is a touch of herbal tea character on the pretty and fresh red berry fruit and gentle earth nuanced nose. The round, delicious and solidly voluminous flavors possess a caressing mid palate texture along with a hint of minerality on the youthfully austere and mildly tangy finale.

big and ripe wine that is regularly 15% alcohol

crushed flowers and deeply spiced notes are woven into an intricate fabric of indescribable class

the 2001 is also incredibly elegant

Full of excitement with tropical floral elements

Gaja's 2008 Brunello di Montalcino Rennina jumps from the glass with vibrant aromas and flavors

It’s a beautiful wine that gently floats off the palate

The wine was vinified using 60% whole cluster and aged for around 22 months in 50% new French oak barrique and 50% used French barrique

warm earth and discreet sauvage nuances

balanced and equally tightly wound finale
