2017 Roagna - Barbaresco FasetColour : Red Producer : Roagna Label Name : Barbaresco Faset Country : Italy Region : Piedmont Sub Region : Barbaresco Variety : Nebbiolo Vintage : 2017 Capacity : 750 ml Standard Bottle Ratings : Wine Spectator 94 pts Tasting Notes : This red shows a supple texture and macerated cherry and strawberry fruit, which initially add up to a lot of pleasure. Yet there is a solid base of tannins too, a promise of this wine's future potential. Comes together

This is a wine for the next generation

mint and licorice

hazelnuts and apple – lifted by a chalky and stony minerality

James Suckling Note: All images are for illustrative purposes only and may not be an exact representation of the product

spices and pepper brighten into dancing sugar plums

high natural acidity and a structural integrity that promises development well into the 2030s

but it is in no danger of falling apart

tobacco and light coffee follow through to a full body

Colour : White Producer : Famille Perrin Label Name : Cotes du Rhone Reserve Blanc Country : France Region : Rhone Sub Region : Cotes du Rhone Variety : Grenache Blanc Vintage : 2019 Capacity : 375 ml - Half Bottle Tasting Note :  

Winemaker Jeff Brinkman has been with the estate from the beginning

with cocoa and mesquite notes leading the way for a supersilky palate loaded with mature vanilla

A more classic but also somewhat harder style of wine than the 2000
