and there is a sense of refinement on the finish that I think has only manifested in vintages of Grand Mayne over the last 5–6 years

This heavily morcellated estate (amounting to some 125 different parcels) is clearly benefitting from a more rigorous selection and better attention to detail regarding harvest dates

this blend of 60% Cabernet Franc and 40% Gamay comes from fruit grown in southern Oregon

2023 Tenuta Le Farnete Barco Reale di Carmignano Provence - Rebecca Gibb MW91 points, Vinous: "The 2023 Barco Reale di Carmignano is wild and savory, blending flowery underbrush and violet pastille with blackberries and sage. Brisk acidity guides this mixture of ripe wild berry fruits, sweet spice and lavender tones. It finishes perfumed and long, yet also potent, with just a hint of fine tannin that frames the experience nicely." Eric Guido Barco Reale is a vineyard where Cabernet is allowed to grow alongside local variety
