Surprisingly crisp acidity

Margaux is one of the greatest parts of our job: it’s a true privilege

this blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon

This is certainly the best Pagodes we have tried to date

white flowers and dried Verbena on the nose

2017 Barolo, Brunate, Marcarini, Piedmont, Italy Chilled Surprisingly crisp acidityThis wine is officially entitled to Riserva status due to its extended ageing in bottle, but its not labelled as such. Its fabulously intense, compact and heady with the notes of a dry vintage: sage, white pepper, some mint, tobacco and liquorice. This isnt a typical La Morra, but its from a great vineyard, with the svelte lines of the commune. Mark Pardoe MW, Wine Director, Berry Bros. & Rudd
