Mazzei Siepi Toscana IGT

2020

Mazzei Siepi Toscana IGT

Siepi, owned by Mazzei family since 1435, has always been a model farm, still managed today with the same kind of respect. A unique location, a special microclimate, the foresight in the early 1980s to plant Merlot as the ideal grape to complement Sangiovese in a very particular “terroir” produce a wine which is perfectly balanced between elegance, power and complexity.

“One of the 50 wines that changed Italy wine style” – Gambero Rosso

Moser Weine Terra Austria Grande Reserve

2020

Moser Weine Terra Austria Grande Reserve

For generations, everything in the Moser family has revolved around wine and its associated traditions. It was Alfred Moser’s son, Gernot Moser, who integrated international standards into the lovingly managed family business, thus laying the foundations for the Moser philosophy that is lived in every fiber of the company today: quality takes time. And space.

Terra Austria is a selection of reserves, possibly with light barrique aging. The typicity of the region, the soil, the harmonious interplay of fruit, spice and acidity are reflected in these wines.

Pastourelle de Clerc Milon Pauillac AOC (Château Clerc Milon GCC 2nd wine)

2020, 2021, 2022, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016

Pastourelle de Clerc Milon Pauillac AOC (Château Clerc Milon GCC 2nd wine)

Tied to the Seigneuries of Lafite and Mouton (future First Classified Growths belonging to two different branches of the Rothschild family), Château Clerc Milon derives its name from its historic owners, the Clerc family, who acquired it when it was sold as a national asset after the French Revolution.

Living testimony to the considerable improvements in quality achieved at the property since the arrival of Baron Philippe and his descendants, Château Clerc Milon now has a second wine. Pastourelle de Clerc Milon has joined the dance and already accomplished its first very confident steps in the company of fine Pauillac wines. Its name comes from a traditional dance, the pastourelle, which evokes a knight’s romantic encounter with a shepherdess: the name echoes the pair of dancers that adorn the label of the Grand Vin. Made of gold, enamel and pearls, this precious miniature from the Museum of Wine in Art at Château Mouton Rothschild belonged to Catherine II, the empress of Russia, and is inspired by characters of the Commedia dell’Arte. Baroness Philippine de Rothschild chose it as the Clerc Milon emblem because of her love of the theatre.

2012 was a year of contrasts. The conditions of the vintage favoured superb expression of the Merlot, here mostly planted on clay-limestone parcels.

Reschke Vitulus Cabernet Sauvignon (1,500ml)

2020

Reschke Vitulus Cabernet Sauvignon (1,500ml)

The Reschke family first settled in the Limestone Coast district in 1906, establishing themselves as prime Hereford graziers. In 1989 Burke Reschke, fourth generation in the family decided to develop the farmland into vineyards, which in turn produced exceptional fruit, as well as a number of Australia’s icon wines.

Reschke is committed to producing superior wines from meticulously managed vineyards in the heart of Coonawarra. Optimal vineyard soils comprised of thin layers of rich red loams over ancient limestone provide the bare requirement for growth without indulging the grapevine’s natural tendency for vigour. Hungry soils combined with rigorous hand pruning restrict yields to ensure richly flavoured fruit. Reschke ‘Vitulus’, Latin, meaning ‘bull calf’, is skilfully crafted to drink well at release and reward those with patience from a short stay in the cellar.
