A delicious selection of three super-premium wines for every wine-lover incl Ch D'Yquem, Opus One & Brunello di Montalcino
Chateau D'Yquem, Sauernes Bordeaux 2016
An epic wine - The 2016 Chateau D’Yquem is pure magic and dessert wines don’t get much better this. the pale lemon-gold colored 2016 d'Yquem leaps from the glass with honeyed apricots, pineapple, green mango, crushed rocks, candied ginger, coriander seed and citrus peel with hints of orange blossom. Breathtakingly wide spectrum of floral honey, exotic fruit (passion fruit, mango and pineapple), caramel and marzipan aromas. But none of this is a jot too much. In fact, the wine is extremely precise and finely nuanced. Wonderful freshness and textural complexity, in spite of the considerable concentration and extravagance. Very suave and sensual finish that goes on and on.
99/100 James Suckling
Opus One, Napa Valley, USA 2018
2018 Opus One soars out of the glass with bright, bold boysenberries, warm cassis and ripe, juicy black plums notes, plus emerging nuances of lilacs, oolong tea, cinnamon stick, tilled soil and black truffles. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is packed with tightly wound layers of crunchy black fruits, supported by firm, grainy tannins and fantastic freshness, finishing with lifted fruitiness and on a lingering mineral note.
99/100 James Suckling
Brunello Di Montalcino, Poggio di Sotto, Montalcino, Tuscany Italy 2018
Voted No1 by Wine Enthusiast's 'Top 100 Cellar Selections 2023'. Sometimes referred to as "Vino da Meditazione," this is a wine to sip and savour ( a thinking wine) due to its sheer elegance and complexity. However, it can handle flavourful and grilled meats, as well as more delicate game such as duck or quail.
98/100 Falstaff
