GRAPE

BARBERA

 

Floral, elegant and expressive aromatics, high toned texture, harmonious and lively acidity. The Barbera d'Alba is consistent expression of this local eclectic grape. Vinification and aging occur in stainless steel to purely deliver its character. 

 

91 Points, Wine Advocate (previous vintage)

This silky red is introduced with violet and boysenberry aromas, with cherry and berry flavors framed by succulent acidity. Elegant and charming, with excellent balance and length. Drink now through 2026.

Ruby red color with purplish highlights and an tense, vinous bouquet, with hints of violets and cherries. A medium-bodied, fruity wine, to be enjoyed young.

91 Points, James Suckling (2021 vintage)

Benchmark Valpolicella. Others should take note. A thirst-slaking rail of salty phenolics, doused in tangerines and sour cherries, with a touch of garden and alpine herbs. Brisk acidity carries length, finishing with a kick of quinine. Delicious. From organically grown grapes. Sustainable

Chardonnay

 

Hess Collection Napa Valley Chardonnay offers elegant aromas of jasmine and honeysuckle, which harmonize with the delicious flavors of white peach, all enveloped in a beautiful finish of subtle vanilla, baking spice and toffee notes.

 

91 Points, Wine Enthusiast

Loads of vanilla, butter and macadamia nut flavors give this full-bodied wine a mouth-filling, almost-sweet effect. Layers of baked apple and pear tart glide on rather soft acidity.

GRAPE

L'Acadie, Chardonnay

 

In the glass, a pale golden colour with a straw hue. On the nose, the wine displays suggestions of smoke and lemon rind with strong sea minerals undertones. The palate is luscious, but with good intensity and vibrancy. Hints of green apples and dried cranberries are magnified by the wine’s bright structure, unfolding in a lengthy mineral finish.

GRAPE

Chardonnay

 

Classic Jura notes of funky sherry-like nuttiness, flor, ripe pears, baked apples with a briny minerality and zippy acidity. Keep in mind: not your typical French Chardonnay; open several hours before serving; can stay open for well over a week; can out live you and your children in the cellar. They’re still selling bottles from the 1800’s!
