La Coupe des Vignerons

Collectif de Barriques Lussac-St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 1999

Mushroom, fig, slight brown paper bag on the nose, which is soft and subtle. Fresh fig, Reiner cherry and a smattering of herbs linger on the palate. Body is medium plus as is the acidity, which for me, is why this wine is shining so bright in 2015. I'd gladly invite this wine into my home again. 12.5%. — 11 years ago

Good balance between salty and acidity notes, this #Lugana ages in old barriques that you barely noticed. Awesome! — 12 years ago

Ravera Barolo Nebbiolo 2005

Not an expert, but I'd have to guess barriques were involved for this wine to be both as mild-mannered and oaky as it was. Not a bad thing, just not what I expected — 12 years ago

Bottle tasted in June 2014. Wine made with Trebbiano grapes, aged in steel and in French barriques. Elegant nose, rich of ripe peach. Very satisfying in the mouth, full, great body, and nice hints of hazelnut. Can't wait to drink it again!
