Donna Laura Bramosia

Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend

Typically brilliant #chianticlassico 85% #sangiovese 15% #merlot. Red / violet floral + woodsy nose, classic earthy-iron varietal aroma, bright acidity, soft tannins and a bit of roundness courtesy of the Merlot, some spice on the finish. Brilliant pairing with Chicken Paillard topped with blue cheese which brought out the spice in the wine, interestingly enough. — 3 months ago

Colli di Lapio

Donna Chiara Irpinia Campi Taurasini DOC Aglianico

A young Aglianico, crunchy, joyful with dark cherry but also some tidy rock, a bit of blood & iron. A whiff of dried herbs.
Nice, juicy tannins - a proper bit yet so finely polished. Bright acidity worth a good mouthfeel.
Not decanted and so drinkable.

Ali Toscana Sangiovese

Très surprenant. Un vin à $16 (SAQ-Cellier) qui passe super bien. Sec 2.5g de sucre, fruits rouges, mi-corsé, très rond, bien équilibré, descend très bien, très fluide. 90% Sangiovese 10% Carbernet Sauvignon, c’est comme un Chianti mais non assemblé selon les normes, mais il est très bon. — 2 months ago

Pegasus Bay

Prima Donna Pinot Noir 2017

Intense, brooding, and complex nose. Dark cherry, plum, sandalwood, and charcuterie. The palate is med/full bodied, med acidity and delivers quite opulent sour cherry and plum fruit. Smoke and chocolate on the end palate. Very long. A bit heavy relative to a burgundy, but the flavour profile, complexity, and length do not disappoint. — 5 months ago

La Singuliere Chinon Cabernet Franc 2014

I’m a sucker for Raffault’s wines and this rarity is no exception. Made from a single old vine parcel in the Picasses vineyard, this wine is aged in 500 litre (1-5 year old) barrels instead of the large foudres used for Picasses.

Dynamite wine with more (but still restrained) oak use. Would love to get my hands on more of this and lay it down as it’s still super true to the house style. Wild and ageworthy!
