Pierre Graffeuille Odyssée 2020.
Pierre is the director of Second Growth, Château Léoville-Las-Cases in Saint-Julien and Clos du Marquis. He has undertaken a personal project and developed an unusual and completely unique wine, made with a combination of fruit from two wildly different geographic locations in France: Cabernet Sauvignon from slopes of deep gravel in the Graves du Médoc between Margaux, Saint Julien, Pauillac and St Estéphe with Grenache and Syrah from the pebbly, clay limestone soils of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas
Matthiasson Fountain Grove District Syrah 2020
Ideally the grape variety is planted in its perfect place. A place that suits that particular variety perfectly. For example, Syrah planted on top of a rocky mountain, cooled by morning fog and breezes from a valley that opens up to the ocean, and warmed by afternoon sun before the breezes pick back up again in the afternoons to cool the grapes back down again. This wine is that example.The vineyard sits at the very top of the Fountain Grove District, on top of a rocky mountaintop overlooking Santa Rosa in Sonoma County, cooled by Russian River Valley breezes that come in like clockwork from the nearby cold Pacific Ocean.Furthermore, Steve has consulted for this vineyard for ten years, brought in by his good friend Duncan Meyers of Arnot-Roberts, who was the founding winemaker for Petrichor. He knows the organically farmed vineyard intimately.To capture the Syrah spice we used 100% whole clusters in the fermentation. The whole clusters also gave us plenty of structure and depth. We fermented in a small open top bin, with two punch downs per day. We gently pressed just after dryness, and aged the wine in neutral puncheons for 10 months.The pH is 3.73 the TA is 5.5 g/L, and the alcohol is 13.5%. 205 cases produced.The Petrichor Syrah is dense and meaty, with lots of savory bacon along with the blackberry and spice. It’s a deeply colored, almost brooding Syrah, powerful, but with that Matthiasson trademark precision and elegance.
Castello di Monsanto 'Nemo' Toscana IGT 2017
In the mid-1970s, while the debate around whether or not international vines could be legitimately grown in central Tuscany was raging, Fabrizio Bianchi decided to plant Cabernet Sauvignon in the Il Mulino vineyard. The first harvest was produced in 1982, resulting in a wine that serves as a unique expression of the local area. Its name is inspired by the famous saying “Nemo propheta in patria” – no man is a prophet in his own land – a fitting description of the winery’s cutting-edge and pioneering spirit in those days.
