Better in 2018

Antonio Galloni of the Wine Advocate first tweeted about Andre Clouet Cuvée Un Jour de 1911

An intensely fruity extra virgin olive oil from the Sicilian Cerasuola variety

concentrated and rather introverted core of fruit framed by chalky extract and animated by a pretty pinpoint mousse

Altanza, Rioja Gran Reserva 2016 Garnacha Better in 2018A Gran Reserva Rioja is a special treat. The long ageing that qualifies this wine for the Gran Reserva label gives rise to complex and deep aromas from fruit to spice to smoke and leather. The oak influence carries through onto the palate, with rich, toasty breadth that takes in hints of coffee and dark chocolate around a core of fine, ripe Tempranillo fruit.
