"We start with Nino Franco’s NV Prosecco Rustico, which sets the mood for a relaxing dinner after a long day of tasting 2014 Napa Valley Cabernets."

Sour cherries, orange zest, bark and tobacco leaves on the nose. Some olives and walnut husk. Savory and sleek with a medium body, tight-grained tannins and a chewy finish. Lovely pure sangiovese character. Better from 2024.

The 2019 Chianti Classico is a very pretty, open-knit wine. In most vintages, the Castell'in Villa Chianti Classico is quite forbidding young, but the 2019 is surprisingly approachable. Cedar, sweet pipe tobacco, menthol, licorice, dried herbs, ripe red cherry fruit and a suggestion of new oak all open effortlessly. Readers will have a hard time keeping their hands off this gem. In 2019, the Chianti Classico is quite aromatic and decidedly medium-bodied.

"The nose of the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Reserve from Maipo ranges from cassis to candied cherries to black tea and hints of camphor. Gentle with a dry beginning and soft texture, it is easy-drinking in a new style for Maipo: almost modern but still rooted in tradition."

The pale Garnacha 2022 La Xara is serious but keeps the freshness and finesse. It fermented with 100% full clusters in 4,500-liter oak vats and matured in 11,000-liter oak vats and 600-liter oak barrels for seven months. It has 13.5% alcohol and a pH of 3.65, with contained ripeness, red berry fruit and a serious, austere and stony sensation. This is serious and complete, with a solid palate and a strong limestone/chalky sensation without rusticity. 15,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in April 2023.

The cumulative rainfall at Château Fieuzal was only 385 millimeters in 2022, compared to 753 millimeters in 2021 and 743 millimeters in 2020. But this did not prevent Stephen Carrier and his team from making a fresh and energetic 2022 de Fieuzal, bursting with aromas of violet, iris, menthol and crunchy wild berries mingled with hints of coniferous forest floor. Medium to full-bodied, it's pristinely balanced and beautifully layered, exhibiting a vibrant palate that's deep, tensile and elegant, concluding with a mouthwateringly mineral finish. This estate is achieving things no one would have thought possible a decade ago.

A crunchy and energetic wine from here this year with black berry, black cherry and crushed stone character. Medium-bodied with lively acidity and a fine tannin background.

94 Wine Enthusiast

This wine is the Chanel dress or black suit that never goes out of style. Elegant and well-crafted, the wine shows the patience of a good wine grower. Aromas of ripe cherries and red currants lift with mixed wild flowers, camphor and turned earth on the nose. Graceful on the palate with elegant tannins that grip with a velvet glove and hold the fruit and savory flavors all in balance. Artisanal craft at its best. Drink 2026–2040.
