Domaine de L'Ecu "Gneiss" Muscadet Sevre et Maine 2015
90
Our Score
(6/2021) Fred Niger continues on the path set by Guy Bossard, a pioneer in the original "Natural Wine" resistance. The vineyards of this estate have been Ecocert organic certified since 1975 and Demeter biodynamic certified in 1998. Old Melon vines of a single parcel, which has soil rich in metamorphic rock soil, "Gneiss," and farmed at much lower yields than typical of the region, produces a particularly rich expression of l'Ecu. These wines age an exceptional amount of time in underground tanks on their own indigenous yeast lees, in fact the maximum amount allowed by appellation law. Less than 1,000 cases of this final vintage were produced. The overall vibe is of a "living," vital wine. Yellow pear, marzipan, white florals, yeast and deep salinity are harmonious on a textural, engaging palate. Not a simple porch pounder, this should appeal to fans of "old school" styles of other French whites, including Burgundian Chardonnay and Aligote, Bordeaux and Pinot Gris. Not a loud wine, but one that keeps you coming back for more and more.

Domaine Lombard "Les Vignes de Raspans" Cotes-du-Rhone Brezeme 2017
100% Syrah from the Northern Rhone Appellation of Brezeme!

Vinous, Josh Raynolds
(3/2020) "Saturated violet color. A highly perfumed bouquet evokes ripe black/blue fruits and pungent flowers, along with licorice, black pepper and olive accents. Fleshy and pliant in the mouth, offering ripe cassis, bitter cherry and spicecake flavors that are supported by a spine of zesty acidity. Rich yet surprisingly lively as well, finishing gently sweet and very long, with slow-building tannins and a late jolt of spicy cracked pepper. Drinking window: 2023 - 2030."

Deltetto "Suasi" Langhe Rosato 2020
90
Our Score
(5/2021) We are loving Italian Rosato! Suasi is from the Piedmontese dialect meaning "chosen." These 100% organically-farmed Nebbiolo grapes are selected to make a refined and delicious rose. Refreshing and impressive layers of strawberry, raspberry, citrus and cranberry are backed by spice and zippy acid. This mouthwatering pink pairs perfectly with shellfish, summer salads and appetizers. This is going to be your go-to rose!

(6/2021) Bold tastes for a modest price is the Michael David way. From the inland empire of Zin, Lodi, comes another. Friendly notes of black raspberry, vanilla, medium roast coffee, cinnamon and pepper are clean and easy across a concise finish. Pair with summer barbecues and casual company.

Aveleda Vinho Verde Alvarinho 2018

Wine Enthusiast
(11/1/2019) "The ripe, creamy character of Alvarinho from the Moncao and Melgaco subregion of Vinho Verde gives this wine a smooth character that is sharpened by touches of minerality. It is packed with refreshing fruitiness from the lingering juicy acidity."
