Description
Villa Montepaldi is a fabulous renaissance property, once owned by Leonardo di Medici consisting of 300 hectares of vineyards and olive groves that is now owned by The University of Florence, and doubles as the field station for the Oenology department. It is run as a non-profit organisation and, as such, the wines are phenomenally good value. The winemaking is overseen by Italy’s leading consultant in Carlo Ferrini and the wines themselves are traditional in style with beautiful violet aromas bursting with cherry fruit. Delicious in thier relative youth, the fabulous Chiantis from this property benefit hugely from their time in bottle.
The classy 2018 is drinking beautifully with fruit, spice and acidity in perfect harmony.

2023 Promis Ca Marcanda, Gaja, IGT Toscana
Merlot
The Ca Marcanda Promis is a complex wine with an undeniable elegance. The nose is rich and concentrated, with blueberry, liquorice and cocoa hints. It starts fresh and then develops balsamic notes and scents of graphite, before becoming more mellow in character with a rhubarb and menthol note. The palate is voluminous with fine-grained and silky tannins on the finish.

2023 Gamay, Domaine Moulin Camus, IGP Loire
Gamay
This 100% Gamay from Domaine Moulin Camus comes from grapes grown on a slope of pure mica schist which gives the wine juicy, rounded red fruits a bit of tautness and minerality. A warmer than normal, sulphur free maceration for three days helps bring out some warmth and roundness to the fruit, making it slightly beaujolais'esque but without the bubble gum/commercial edge that one would normally find in this price range.
