(TREVALLON) Trevallon Dear Friends, We offered a split this morning so it seems fair to give a few magnums their turn? Here are two large format bottles that were confirmed over the weekend and will be here shortly. Both have perfect provenance and are terrific deals for what they are. A magnum of Ardingo for less than $50? That confirms we've reached a new level of craziness in the current wine economy. In the end, it is the consumer that benefits so here you go... 2005 Domaine de TrÄvallon Vin de Pays des Bouches du RhÖne 1.5lt Trevallon needs little introduction and neither does 2005. With even more stuffing than the famous 1990, this tannic year produced long-lived wine in the South that played right into the hands of Domaine Trevallon, one of France's original renegade examples. In magnum, this wine should age for at least another 20 years. A top effort that will really surprise if given its due in the cellar. I passed on this at $90 half a year ago - I'm glad I did because $69.99 is a lot more like it. 1999 Calbello "Ardingo" (Costanti) 1.5lt This is just a ridiculous price. 1999 was a deep and dense vintage in Montalcino (similar in style to the 2005 Southern vintage noted above) and this wine is the product of very caring hands. This is Andrea Costanti's attempt at a Redigaffi-esque result (mostly Merlot with part Cabernet, instead of Sangiovese Grosso for the Brunello). Another example that should be nearing peak in this format but should also last for many years. For less than the price of a 750ml in the US, this seems like an ideal choice for a dinner party or connoisseur's office party. A steal. Thank you, Jon Rimmerman Garagiste Seattle, WA SOFR4566 Italy3455

Decantato un’ora, si esprime subito bene, con la parte vegetale del Cabernet inizialmente preponderante, che lascia subito spazio a un frutto dolce, con richiami di anice e foglie di the. È in un ottimo momento, tannino risolti, fresco, avvolgente, lungo. Un vino del Sud a 13%…. Bei tempi andati.

The 2005 Trevallon is just sitting in a great place along its arc of maturity with potent cassis alongside very subtle black pepper, violet, and garrigue. This is shockingly suave - and clean. 93-94

Color/App: moderately deep ruby core -> somewhat dense garnet rim. 3rd bottle of six purchased long ago at retail and the first noted here as I felt the other two were too young to rate. This finally seems to be coming into its own. Syrah dominant upon PnP with roasted meat and olive tapenade that faded into the Cabernet at the 2.5 hour mark. At that point, showing off scorched cherries, blackcurrant, leather and earth. Fairly rustic palate still; black fruits and leather, iron and tar, all running with a slight weedy, green note I could do without. Medium-length (minus) finish that's a bit tannic still, showing this probably still needs a few more years. Good, but I've had better years of Trevallon.

Needs a bit of time to open up. After that lots of forestfruit. Still very much alive! Not overly complex.
