The Figli Luigi Oddero 2019 Barbaresco Rombone is tight and streamlined with typical Nebbiolo aromas that reveal themselves slowly as the wine begins to open. The wine's intensity remains moderate throughout, and this softer approach works well to enhance the more delicate and nuanced sides of this mighty red grape from Piedmont.

"While there is visible wood treatment it is much more discreet and already well-integrated into the equally fresh, complex and appealing aromas of plum, cassis and pungent earth. The muscular, concentrated and very serious middle weight plus flavors coat the mouth with dry extract that also helps to buffer the markedly firm tannic spine shaping the rustic, youthfully austere and saline-infused finish. This is textbook Valozières."

"Mid crimson. Sweet and rich in dark fruit on the nose. Then dark and savoury on the palate, almost charry. The complete opposite of sweet but not severe. Firm, dry tannins and absolutely needs food but there’s fruit at the core to soften the severity of the structure. Needs time but it’s all in place."

Generous and expressive, the latest rendition of Vilmart's NV Brut Premier Cru Cuvée Rubis is showing very well, bursting with aromas of red berries, plums, blood orange and dried flowers. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, with a sapid core of fruit, a pillowy mousse and a lively, delicately phenolic finish, it's already drinking well. This is based on the 2017 vintage, with reserve wines from the 2016 and 2015 vintages, and it was disgorged with nine grams per liter dosage.

Hints of chive blossoms and pink grapefruit pith accent a well-spiced range of crunchy white peach, lentil and mineral notes in this creamy, light-bodied white, backed by bright acidity. Garganega, Chardonnay and Sauvignon. Drink now. 7,950 cases imported.

A wonderfully fresh and ripe nose combines notes of red currant, plum and a whisper of earth. The sleek, delicious and vibrant middleweight flavors terminate in an inviting and refreshing if lightly rustic finish. This is very good for its level plus it offers short to mid-term aging potential.

There's a fruity side to this red as well as a spicy side, with cherry, strawberry and black pepper flavors throughout. Floral, iron and underbrush accents add depth, yet it's the beam of pure cherry that prevails. Shows prodigious length on the finish. Best from 2027 through 2043. 4,000 cases made, 1,800 cases imported.

Understated yet beautifully refined, the 2022 Bianco Flors di Uis keeps the taster coming back to the glass with its pretty blend of lime sorbet, chamomile, spring flowers and white smoke. It flows across the palate with a sensation of liquid stone and minerals, elevated by lively acidity as a core of candied lemon is contrasted by tart green apple fruit. The 2022 finishes with a lingering concentration and tart citrus pith bitterness, yet through it all, the mouth is left salivating for more. Readers may have a hard time keeping their hands off in its youth, yet I advise patience. This Flors di Uis is still just a baby in its development and has bloomed beautifully with further bottle age. A fantastic showing. This is a blend of 55% Malvasia Istriana, 31% Rhein Riesling and 14% Friulano.

I like the violet and cassis notes here mingling with mulberries and purple plums. It’s medium-bodied, fresh and lively, with purple fruit wrapped up in silky tannins. Lots of energy. Drink or hold.
