Domaine Jean Grivot Vosne-Romanee 2017
Domaine Jean Grivot is among the great names in Burgundian wine. Étienne Grivot and his wife Marielle took over from Étienne’s father Jean Grivot in 1987, and were joined by their daughter Mathilde in 2017. Organic farming, dense vine planting, and hard work in the vineyard give a ripe concentrated style. Grivot produces the classic expression of Vosne-Romanée, aromas and flavors of red berries, herbs, and purple flowers with a rich, ripe fruit palate. This is the iron fist in the floral velvet glove.

PlumpJack Merlot 2016
The 2016 vintage has layers of aromatics ranging from black cherry, plum, and raspberry to graham cracker, vanilla, butterscotch, and sweet hickory smoke. These flavors extend to the palate, which has a rich and silky entry with bright acidity and firm structure, resulting in great tension, balance, and persistence on the finish. Blend: 96% Merlot, 4% Malbec "Containing a 4% splash of Malbec, the deep purple-black colored 2016 Merlot opens with notions of chocolate-covered cherries, plum preserves, spice cake and black pepper with hints of garrigue and wild sage. Full-bodied and boldly fruited in the mouth, the juicy black fruit is well framed by rounded tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing long and spicy." -Wine Advocate

Ostatu Gran Reserva 2011
"Tempranillo and Graciano. An elegant expression of the potential of great vintages in Samaniego. 24 months aging in oak casks, 5 months in a wooden vat and more than three years in the bottle give us a long life wine, elegant and perfumed, with excellent acidity and freshness.

Vega Sicilia Alion 2016
The highly anticipated 2016 Alión spent 12 months in oak barrels, 80% of them new and built mainly with French oak but with some 5% American oak, and some 10% of the volume matured in 15,000-liter concrete vats. It hits the scale at 15% alcohol and has moderate acidity, showing ripe black fruit and a creamy texture. 2016 has to be one of the freshest and most elegant vintages of Alión, a year with depth, freshness and terrific balance. Same as they do in Pintia, they are finding ways to lower the impact of the oak in the wine; here, they used concrete, and the wine shows more primary and floral aromas and is nicely textured and with fine tannins. 258,458 bottles, 7,017 magnums and some larger formats produced. It was bottled in June 2018.

Complex, with notes of plums and ripe grapes, jam of blackberries and red raspberries that give way to spicy and balsamic notes of tobacco leaves, cedar, liquorice, vanilla, chocolate and ground coffee. Good entry. Fresh and balanced in the mouth, with polished, silky tannins and a gentle, delicate finish. Very long aftertaste, with balsamic notes of coffee and toasted caramel, candied fruits and liquorice dominating these pleasant sensations.

Excellent rare Barolo by Chionetti, Piedmontese producer of the famed Briccolero Dolcetto. This Barolo beautifully expresses the best that the Nebbiolo grape has to offer - classic tar and roses, a core of bright deep cherry fruit, and earthy complexity. This will benefit from long-term cellaring.
