Description
The ’14 Chasse-Spleen is a wonderfully refined wine which is just starting to hit its stride, although will continue to evolve and drink superbly into the early 2030’s. The nose shows lots of dark fruits along with a fresher blueberry character mixed with black pepper and cedar spice. The palate shows layers of blackberry fruit and terrific oak integration. The finish is long and fresh with plenty of depth.
50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot & 5% Petit Verdot
“A very elegant, fresh and classical wine with a lot of energy and drive on the finish, which has a real mineral character. Great aging potential. Needs three years to soften. Real Chasse-Spleen here!”
93 Points James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, February 2017

2021 Gamay ‘Canaille’, Domaine Roussely
Gamay
Vincent Roussely is the fourth generation of the family to make wines at this beautiful 8 hectare vineyard site in the heart of Chenonceaux on the Cher River. Since 2007 he has farmed his vineyards by hand machine and horse and as a result has seen the health of his vineyards and grapes improve immeasurably, which naturally has a direct influence on the wines he produces.The Cellar is underground, dug into a tuffeau tunnel underneath the vines, and have been used for vinification of wine for over 250 years. New inox fermentation tanks have been put in place located in carved out recesses in the soft stone. Ferments are spontaneous and naturally very slow. 100% Gamay, 50% of which is whole bunch ferment and 50% destemmed from the younger vineyards around the village of Ange, south of the Cher river. Natural ferments with malolactic fermentation taking place in stainless steel and bottled the summer after harvest. Delightfully approachable and a pure pleasure to drink, this is a true terroir wine with a sense of place and vitality which make it equally appealing to savour or simply drink.

Nerello Mascalese
The Nostru range from Azienda Agricola Cortese offer terrific value, expressive wines made with grapes more commonly associated with the slopes of Mount Etna. The farming here is traditional and a nod to when organic production was a way of life rather than an informed decision.
