Description
With a winery located in the steep hills of Mango in Gramella, the Tintero family has been tending grapevines in the appellations of Moscato d’Asti and Langhe for four generations. The estate is run by third-generation Marco and his partner, Cinzia. Cantine Tintero really began to establish itself after WW2, when brothers Giovanni and Carlo began selling Moscato grapes to local drinks giants, Cinzano and Martini (while making their own wines for local consumption).
The colour is quite pale which is quite typical for Nebbiolo. The enticing aromas have touches of earth, stone and cherry, verging towards a Pinot Noir style, with hints of rose and strawberry but distinctly Italian. Lovely fresh fruit, floral hints with fine spices and good grip on the finish. Not necessarily flashy, but provides excellent drinking and precise varietal characteristics.

2023 Beaujolais Villages ‘Cuvee Six’, Caves De Julienas Chaintre
Gamay
The Beaujolais Villages 'Cuvee Six' from Caves De Julienas Chaintre just gets better and better with each vintage, showing soft, rounded red fruits and vibrant cherry flavours. Complex enough to make one sit up and think yet easy going and supple at the same time. Great for lighter lunches and it can also be chilled lightly when the weather warms up!
