Domaine Henri Magnien Vieilles Vignes
Domaine Henri Magnien Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes The Vieilles Vignes, or old vines, are from those mich sought-after 70 to 100-year-old vines from which the Massal Selection cuttings, named Pinot Magnien, are taken. Expect a juicy, generous Gevrey-Chambertin Villages rogue showing ripe red fruit, great balance, a medium-body and a lengthy finish. All much like the younger Villages equivalent bottling. However, youll find more depth, complexity and concentration here as expected from an old vines selection. '...this is an exciting emerging domaine with which consumers are warmly advised to acquaint themselves'- Wine Advocate Shop Henri Magnien >
Eden Rift Lansdale Pinot Noir
Eden Rift Lansdale Pinot Noir Dark and ripe yet silky and smooth, the Lansdale Pinot Noir is sourced from the propitiously sited Q-Block from the crest of the contiguous valley that comprises the Eden Rift estate. The wine is an intense inky hue with notes of black cherry, blueberry, sagebrush, and baking spices. Blackberry, cherry, earth, and oak flavours carry through to the palate with nice acidity and velvety tannins that lead to a long finish.
Raen Royal St Robert Pinot Noir
RAEN Royal St Robert Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast Raen’s Royal St. Robert Pinot Noir is dedicated to the current generation’s grandfather. The fruit is sourced from a selection from their coastal vineyards, giving a window to the rugged hills of the westerly Sonoma Coast. Vibrant aromas of black and red cherry, rose petal, and black tea fill the bowl. Wild raspberry and just-ripe red plum notes give way to coastal moss, wet gravel and forest underbrush. Western spice box notes complement the brooding, powerful fruit core, giving way to a vibrant and lasting finish.
Domaine Julien Nuits Saint Georges
The sleek and tension-filled middleweight flavors possess a relatively finely textured mid-palate that contrasts with the mildly rustic and austere finale. This impressively long effort could also use better depth but that is almost certain to develop. A quality Nuits villages.
