"The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino pulls the taster close to the glass with its dark and earthy blend of crushed ashen stones

The Hilt Estate Sparkling, Sta Rita Hills, USA 2020 Châteauneuf du Pape We were overjoyedCitrus zest, white flowers and fresh apricot. Brims with minerality and notes of crushed stone. Ultra fine mousse and a delicate textural elegance. With less than 1. 5g L dosage, this wine remains tense and poised while also expressing great tenderness and suppleness. Hint of salt on finish. Buoyed by a chalky structure that keeps the wine lively and long on the palate. Precise and joyful vintage for our flagship sparkling. Matt Dees, Winemaker 60%
