Chateau, des Quarts

Chateau, des QuartsNA

Supple and with wonderful concentration of fruit

I would make the same observation here that this should benefit from at least some forbearance as it’s quite Cistercian-like today

Like the Malconsorts this intensely mineral-driven effort is somewhat less structured than usual though it certainly doesn’t lack for power and punch

which lends freshness

and the wine was alternatively in barrique and stainless steel

This is terrific

This is a super-classic Barolo from Brovia

The rich but sleekly textured medium-bodied flavors possess plenty of dry extract that buffers the moderately firm tannic spine on the minerally and powerful finish

Like the Griotte this is an overtly robust and powerful wine that will require an even longer snooze in a cool cellar

This is not as big and robust as the Bonnes Mares but it’s finer and has that extra dimension of depth and class that a great example of Musigny intrinsically possesses

and 6% Merlot really tastes and feels great

This possesses superb elegance and is perhaps the most transparent wine in this entire flight
