The Cordero di Montezemolo Barolo Enrico VI is a deep red garnet in color. Delicately spiced bouquet with notes of eucalyptus, licorice and menthol, and mature fruit on the palate invoking liqueur soaked cherries, blackberries and prunes with hints of violets and medicinal herbs. Powerful on the palate with a lasting finish.
Review:
The rose flower, violet, dark berry and cedar aromas are impressive on the nose. Full-bodied with chewy tannins that are powerful and muscular. Excellent length. Classic Barolo that needs at least four or five years to soften. From organically grown grapes. Try after 2027.

Marie Baron Bourgueil Rouge is made from 100 percent Cabernet Franc.
Bourgueil is a renowned red wine appellation in the Loire Valley, situated on the north bank of the Loire River in Touraine. The appellation is known for producing expressive Cabernet Franc wines that range from light and fruity to structured and age-worthy.
This wine displays a beautiful ruby color with aromas of red fruits, violets, and a characteristic hint of green pepper. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with supple tannins, bright acidity, and flavors of raspberry and blackcurrant with a touch of graphite.
Pairs wonderfully with charcuterie, grilled meats, goat cheese, or rillettes.
