The 2012 d'Aiguilhe is marked by super-distinctive notes of blood orange, cranberry and white pepper, all of which give the wine considerable energy. The flavors are bright and focused throughout. Drink it over the next handful of years.
Hot stone and seashell minerality with lots of salted lemon and fresh herbs. The textured, medium-bodied palate delivers a saline quality to the slightly neutral fruit. Zesty and pretty focused, even if it is not very long. Drink now.
Ca'del Bosco - Franciacorta Cuvee Prestige Brut NV 750ml
Black berries and dark leather with some crushed slate and blue fruits on the nose. Some dark mushrooms. It’s full-bodied and chewy with lots of toasted oak. Rich and flavorful but remains linear and fresh. Drink after 2025.
