This burgundy (organically grown Pinot Noir in soil with limestone, then aged in barrels and steel) has notes of red fruit, oak, spice, and mineral on the finish. It’s a balanced wine with some acidity and fruit. — 4 months ago

2017 vintage. DOCG Chianti Classico. Part of Italy’s 73 regions ranked as top quality tier. This is from the village of Radda. Apparently, Radda’s Chiantis are exceptionally high-toned and elegant. Deep garnet color, you get preserved cherry, black plum, espresso, a medium amount of tannin with an elegant finish with a layer of sweetness. Giving it time to breath softens the tannins and opens up the flavor. — a month ago
Another good wine from GD Vajra. 2023 vintage. Medium bodied off-dry Italian Reisling. A bright palate with pink grapefruit, citrus zest, stone/wet slate, and unripe apricot. In the land of nebbiolo, Barbera, Dolcetto, and moscato, the family cultivated the first Riesling in Piedmonte. — 4 months ago
