  2019 Barbaresco Asili, Bruno Giacosa

  £21500

  Bruno Giacosa is considered to be one of Piedmont’s most highly regarded producers, their wines are some of the most highly sought after in the world.

  The great man passed away in 2018 but since 2011 winemaking has been overseen by his protegé Dante Scaglione, together with his daughter Bruna Giacosa.

  Asili represents one of the most important and celebrated single vineyards of Barbaresco – a magical combination of muscle and refinement.  Bruno Giacosa purchased vineyards in Asili in the 1980s, which now total 2.5 hectares.

  This 2019 is a seriously exciting vintage. Boasting noteworthy power and persuasive elegance, the 2019 has pure, crystalline palate with a silky but firm body. Notes of raspberry and wild strawberry with floral tones are found on the nose. On the palate, good structure is matched with freshness of fruit and fine tannins.  Drink 2024-2034.

  2017 Viña Ardanza Reserva, La Rioja Alta *Jeroboam Gift Box*

  £21800

  A magnificent Jeroboam (3L) of 2017 Viña Ardanza Reserva packed in a beautiful Gift Box.

  La Rioja Alta’s Viña Ardanza Reserva is one of the finest Reserva’s available and a benchmark for the region.  Every vintage is outstanding and never fails to elicit a smile upon drinking.    La Rioja Alta is the gold standard for traditional bodegas: a winery that ages their wines the old-fashioned way, meaning three years in barrel with two rackings a year, followed by three years in bottle.

  The 2017 comprises 78% Tempranillo from Fuenmayor and Cenicero blended together with 22% Garnacha from the famous ‘La Pedriza’ vineyard in Tudelilla.

  “The nose stands out for its power, a highly complex blend of spicy and balsamic aromas of sweet liquorice, patisserie, vanilla, cinnamon, cocoa, coffee and nutmeg, and notes of stewed red fruits. Outstanding balance, pleasant freshness and great structure in the mouth, with supple, round tannins. Very pleasant mouthfeel. An ample aftertaste of spicy notes, sweet liquorice and ripe fruit makes Viña Ardanza 2015 a timeless wine, with tremendous laying-down potential and one of the best vintages of the XXI.” Head winemaker – Julio Saénz

  A Jeroboam of La Réserve Champagne, Champagne Palmer & Co

The two Premier Crus of Trépail and Villers-Marmery are highly reputed for their Chardonnays with citrus, mineral, and floral notes.

The Premier Crus of Ludes, Chignyles-Roses, and Rilly-la-Montagne add structure and freshness to both Pinot Noirs and Meuniers. This aromatic diversity enables the oenologists to craft unique blends each year.
