Baker’s notes & crumb story
Description
I dont know
The 2009 Barbaresco is absolutely remarkable for the way it carersses the palate with endless layers of sweet red fruit
In this vintage
backward and brooding nose reluctantly gives up hints of very earthy dark pinot fruit nuanced by a distinct animale hint that merges into broad-shouldered flavors that offer excellent volume and concentration that finishes with just a hint of dryness and plenty of minerality
Clos St Jean, Chateauneuf Du Pape Deus-Ex Machina other_regions I dont knowThe 2011 Chateauneuf du Pape Deus ex Machina is a stunner in the vintage. Like the Combe des Fous, it has incredible elegance, as well as the forward, sexy nature of the vintage. Kirsch liqueur, currants, toast, sandalwood, and graphite are just some of the nuances here. The wine hits the palate with full bodied richness, a layered, seamless mouthfeel and beautifully polished tannin on the finish. Give it another year or two and drink it through 2026.
