4393 Châteauneuf du Pape - Vintage 2006
cuvée de Mon Aieul, P. Usseglio
(Wines Located in New York)
"...boasts a dense plum/purple color followed by a glorious bouquet of black cherries, blackberries, truffles, lavender, licorice, and spring flowers. The color is one of the darkest of the vintage, and the wine is extremely full-bodied and rich with intense levels of extract and tannin, but the latter is gorgeously sweet and well-integrated."(96pts)

Tenuta Nuova, Casanova di Neri
(Wines Located in New York)
"The 2007 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova saturates the palate with masses of super-ripe dark fruit, tar, licorice and new leather. The Tenuta Nuova is an especially full-bodied, seamless Sangiovese deeply influenced by the Mediterranean climate of this warm site in the south of Montalcino. Layers of fruit build to an effortless, resonant finish laced with considerable aromatic nuance. "(95+pts)

This is not a huge wine but one that is impressively harmonious as everything is in perfect balance. A precise and driving finish adds an exclamation point to what is already a very classy wine."(91-94pts BH)

Composed of 98% Grenache from 100- to 110-year-old vines, and made from incredibly tiny yields, it boasts a dense ruby/purple color followed by a sweet kiss of kirsch liqueur, incense, camphor, truffles, and lavender. The wine hits the palate with sensational richness, a full-bodied, multilayered texture, awesome purity, and remarkable freshness as well as vibrancy. The tannins are velvety, the acids provide uplift and delineation to the wine's enormous richness and depth, and the finish lasts nearly a minute."(98pts)

Frightfully concentrated with layers of glycerin and fruit, it should prove to be one of the appellation s greatest classics. More backward than either the 1998 or 2000 Capos, it is an enormously endowed, hugely concentrated, exhilarating effort that will last for three decades or more. It is a strong candidate for the wine of the vintage."(99-100pts)

Dense plum/ruby to the rim, with a huge nose of roasted herbs, beef blood, chocolate, pepper, sweet cherries, and black currants, the wine is full-bodied and dense, with huge extract and richness, high glycerin, and plenty of tannin. The wine has a late-harvest, almost roasted character to it, hence the comparison with Amarone does not seem far-fetched. The fact that it is well north of 16% alcohol also suggests it has a lot in common with an Italian Amarone."(98pts)

The 1995 is reminiscent of a young 1978. The huge nose of kirsch, black-raspberries, and minerals is followed by a backward, dense, powerful Châteauneuf du Pape of legendary-like richness, as well as striking intensity and depth. This opaque purple-colored wine is massive in the mouth, as well as somewhat tannic."(93pts)

The 1995 Côte Rôtie cuvée Mordoree may turn out to rival the phenomenal 1991. It is the most complex, elegant, and multi-dimensional young Côte Rôtie I have tasted from Chapoutier. The awesome aromatics include scents of coffee, black-raspberries, vanilla, chocolate, hickory smoke, flowers, and Provencal olives."(95pts)
