Tommaso Bussola Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore Ca’ del Laito 2018 750ml

Tommaso Bussola Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore Ca' del Laito 2018 Though the grapes for this wine come from a number of vineyards, it gets its name from the Ca’ del Laito vineyard, which sits on a... ridge directly above Quintarelli. Bold, rich, and surprisingly complex, the 2018 Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore Ca' del Laito explodes with juicy cherries and berries, balsamic herbs, underbrush, warm earth, and sprinklings of potpourri and cocoa. A ripasso wine, this Valpolicella “passes” through the lees of the estate’s classic Amarone, adding intensity, polish, and finesse. An absolute bang for the buck!

Bruna Grimaldi

Bruna Grimaldi Barolo Camilla 2018 750ml

Bruna Grimaldi Barolo Camilla 2018

A beautiful, approachable cuvee Barolo, the 2018 Camilla exudes style, drink-me-now juiciness, and surprising precision. Layers of crisp... black cherries and berries dance on a bed of pressed rose petals, warm baking spices, crushed mint, fresh loam, and a generous spritz of blood orange. Chewy tannins feel integrated, giving the wine a pleasant mouthfeel, while elegant acidity keeps it nimble and lively. Delicious upon release but aging nicely over the next decade.

Tommaso Bussola

Tommaso Bussola TB Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2016 750ml

Tommaso Bussola TB Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2016 Tommaso uses the appassimento method for about half of the grapes in its TB Valpolicella Superiore, where the grapes partially dry before... pressing to concentrate their flavors and texture. This 2016 TB Valpolicella is a knockout — crisp cherries and lush berries wrap around a core of savory herbs, warm baking spices, mocha, and touches of burnt sugar and chalky minerals. Nimble and silky, this wine shows sneaky power as it unfolds on the palate to a lingering, rich finish. Enjoyable now with aerations, it’ll be even better in a few years.

Marchesi Antinori

Marchesi Antinori Pian delle Vigne Brunello di Montalcino 2017 750ml

Rich, opulent, and silky-smooth, Pian delle Vigne’s 2017 Brunello defies its challenging vintage with its intense, kaleidoscopic palate and its weighty yet balanced feel. Balsamic herbs, melted... dark chocolate, pressed violet petals, sun-warmed earth, vanilla, and peppery spices frame the super-ripe, ultra-juicy cherries and berries in this bewitching Brunello. Sweet, fine-grained tannins meld with the wine’s bright acidity in this intensely pleasurable 2107 Brunello that’s approachable virtually upon release, though time in the cellar will make it even better.
