Chateau Le Boscq 2017 Saint Estephe

James Suckling bewertet den Rosso dei Notri 2019 am 20.06.2020 wie folgt:

A medium-bodied red with blueberries, walnuts and a slightly bitter orange note. It’s racy and linear. Smoky at the end. Drinkable now, but a little age will make it even better. Try after 2021.

The youthful, flashy exuberance of this wine is impossible to miss. The Tua Rita 2019 Rosso dei Notri offers pronounced primary fruit that bursts out of the glass with immediate directness and frankness. This is a blend of 30% Sangiovese, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Syrah and 20% Merlot. Although it's not declared, there's a tiny touch of Cabernet Franc in there as well that grounds the wine with an extra point of darkness and richness. Most of the blending components do not see oak, but those that do (like the Merlot) go through a brief three months in declassified barrique (hand-downs from Tua Rita's top wines). This estate practices a clever pre-harvest harvest. Some of the fruit from across the various parcels is harvested about 10 days earlier. That fruit, with its extra freshness and acidic brightness, goes into this wine. Indeed, some 150,000 bottles are produced, so this is the bread-and-butter bottle from the estate. The best clusters are left on the vines to mature fully before the second harvest, and that fruit goes into Tua Rita's benchmarks. Doing two harvests in this manner preserves the character of the best fruit on the one hand and creates this entry-level offering on the other. This easy red is a great match to a platter of Italian salumi and cheeses. This wine will be released in June 2020, and it offers terrific value.

The 2019 Langhe Nebbiolo Ginestrino is forthcoming and bright with honest aromas that underline forest fruit and wild cherry. This is a pleasurable and easy-drinking wine that shows a mid-weight approach with plenty of bitter almond, tar and pressed violets that appear as background shadings. Fresh acidity makes this a great choice to pair with a creamy beef stroganoff or something similar. Production is 31.350 bottles.


Der Conterno Fantino 2016 Ginestrino Langhe Nebbiolo ist in allen Belangen ein Preis/Genuss-Wunder! Die im Piemont am Fluss Langhe gediehenen Nebbiolotrauben für diesen Wein bringen im 2019er-Jahrgang die Kraft eines Barolo mit der gewünschten Finesse, Frische und Rasse, die man von einem "kleinen" Nebbiolo erwartet. In der Entwicklung schon auf absolut zugänglichem Level, zeigt sich das Tannin zwar robust, aber nicht ganz so kernig wie nach der kurzen Zeit auf der Flasche befürchtet. Der Conterno Fantino 2019 Ginestrino Langhe Nebbiolo ist intensiv, kraftvoll, gut strukturiert und ein idealer Begleiter zu mediteranen Schmorrgerichten.
