2010 Adriano Marco e Vittorio Barbaresco Basarin

Nebbiolo more

1/3/2016 - Sheila62 Likes this wine: NR

I really like this. Tbis is a young traditionly made barbaresco. The tannins as expected are a bit sharp, but soften a bit in the glass. A bit austere upon opening but the flesh reveals itself with spices, herbs, and a bit of earth. I cant wait to try these with a bit of time in a cool cellar.

NV Agrapart Champagne Les 7 Crus Brut

Champagne Blend more

5/12/2013 - Sheila62 Likes this wine: NR

This was bottled in May 2010 degorged in may 2012. This is 50/50 2008/2009 vintage. A little reduction on the nose but probably the best 7 series I have tasted. The focus of those 2008 grapes with the plushness of the 2009 vintage is a great marriage. Great focus with wonderful minerality and lushness. Just a great non vintage!

This is just entering its drinking window. Quite an elegant wine, with resolving tanins. Wonderful fruit profile, with good acid, from a good vintage.Tasted from Zalto and Reidel Burgundy..just lovely,and what I want from a Brunello..served with Iberico ham, Spanish Tortilla, and an herb salad.

2002 Domaine Arlaud Chambolle-Musigny Cuvée Unique Vieilles Vignes

Pinot Noir more

5/3/2013 - Sheila62 Does not like this wine: NR

too bad this good fruit is smothered underneath an oak blanket. This is a Cuvee Unique bottling, and without all of the oak, this would have been a good village Chambolle. Too bad, and disappointing

2001 Azelia Barolo Bricco Fiasco

Nebbiolo more

11/13/2013 - Sheila62 wrote: NR

This a modern Barolo from the De Grazia portfolio. I just wish the oak was dialed down. This is still tight IMO and need at least 3-5 more years to gain more complexity.

10/30/2013 - Sheila62 wrote: NR

This is really good, but this wines comes alive on day 2. For the price, for a northern rhone cotes du rhone this is a great value. Wonderful purity and freshness, with great florals and olives and spice. The fruit is lush but all is balanced.

Breat Bouzy rose from Paul Bara. Powerful, yet with restraint. I always pair this rose champagne with a hearty dish, and i am not disappointed. If you like Bouzy fruit, this is a champagne that you will enjoy. This cuvee has many years to go in a cool cellar.

Not ready for prime time yet. More structure than flesh at this point on the palate. Great chalk on the palate

2nd-4th day-wine improved and started to show its flesh. Enjoyed more on days 2-4

This has improved since my last bottle two years ago, and improved after the 2nd day. Classic chinon from a good but not great vintage. Nonetheless the wine is balanced, and quite enjoyable.
