Pierre Girardin Vintage:2019 Ravera and Le Coste vineyards

Ravera and Le Coste vineyards

This is textbook Rugiens that is also very clearly built-toage so patience required

There is enough wood and reduction to notice so I would strongly advise decanting this if you’re inclined to try a bottle young

layered and seamless style

The 2015 Lodovico is a wine of real character and personality

Pierre Girardin Vintage:2019 Ravera and Le Coste vineyards(100% whole clusters). A mentholated top note is present on the pretty aromas of rose petal, peony, anise and wisps of both red and dark currant. The sleek, intense and beautifully delineated mineral driven flavors are less rich but more powerful and more complex on the strikingly long finish. The texture, while less enveloping, is more sophisticated and overall, I very much like the sense of proportion and harmony.
