2020 Chateau Ducru BeaucaillouColour : Red Producer : Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou Country : France Region : Bordeaux Sub Region : St Julien Variety : Proprietary Blend Vintage : 2020 Capacity : 750 ml Standard Bottle Tasting Note : Blackcurrants and blueberries with violets and crushed stone. Extremely aromatic. Full bodied but very tight and reserved, with racy, almost steely tannins. Some subtle sweet fruit in the center palate. Great transparency and clarity. Super precision

mineral finish of great classical Brunello authority

a family-owned estate based in the Grand Cru village of Ambonnay in the Montagne de Reims

but there are some gorgeous peach and citrus notes that flourish on the finish

Pajaro Vineyard Country : USA Region : California Sub Region : Central Coast Appellation : San Francisco Bay Sub Appellation : Santa Cruz Mountains Variety : Pinot Noir Vintage : 2017 Capacity : 1

This is showing great potential

judging the vintage insufficiently exceptional for the designation

incorporating both bench and foothill fruit to create a harmonious blend of plushness and austerity

Piquant hints of orange rind and a bit of fresh orange juiciness are outgunned in the finish by the onslaught of caramelized tropical fruit concentrate

with bright acidity supporting a concentrated core of citrus and orchard fruit
