Begali Lorenzo Riserva Monte Ca'Bianca Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2007

Aligoté is de tweede witte druif van Bourgogne, maar staat doorgaans in de schaduw van chardonnay. Zonde! Wist u dat aligoté tot het einde van de 19e eeuw zij aan zij met chardonnay in prestigieuze wijngaarden zoals Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru in de Côte de Beaune stond? Geef deze druif de kans die hij verdient. Wijlen Pieter Nijdam in 2021 in De Telegraaf over een vorige jaargang:"De aligoté van Domaine Giraudon in Chitry is een voorbeeld van hoe het moet. Heerlijk fris met een mineralige toets. Citrus, beetje peer, anijs en frisse zuren.'

93-95+ punten The Wine AdvocateMedium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Rauzan-Ségla leaps from the glass with fragrant exotic spices and dried herbs over a core of blackberries, warm cassis and redcurrant jelly with hints of lavender and crushed stones. Medium-bodied, fine, fresh and elegant, it has soft, fine-grained tannins and wonderful freshness, finishing with an herballift. The blend this year is 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot, harvested between September 12th and October 2nd at an average yield of 40 hectoliters per hectare. It was aged for 18 months in French oak, 60% new. The alcohol is 13.2%, and the pH is 3.68.

Hoog gewaardeerde Nero d'Avola van het befaamde Siciliaanse wijnhuis Donnafugata. De wijn is vol, strelend zacht, vol rood fruit, mooi van structuur, heerlijke licht pittige afdronk.

Echo de Lynch Bages Pauillac 2e vin de Château Lynch Bages AOP 2021

The Wine Advocate Robert Parker99/100 Punten Red-fruited and garrigue-laden, the nose of the 2018 Chateauneuf du Pape Hommage à Jacques Perrin is glorious, showing remarkable complexity in its notes of cherries, raspberries and strawberries, all accented by hints of bay leaf, lavender and thyme, plus deeper bass notes of black olives, roasted meat, espresso, star anise and dark chocolate. Full-bodied and intense, it seems to have added structure since last year, with a firm matrix of tannins holding it all together and lingering on the lengthy finish. Put this Mourvèdre-based blend (approximately 60%) away for five or more years; itshould drink well for a couple of decades beyond that.
