Paarl wine region is one of the largest and most established wine regions in South Africa. It is located about 60 km northeast of Cape Town in the Western Cape province. The name Paarl comes from the Dutch word "Pearl" which is a reference to the large granite rock that dominates the town of Paarl and the surrounding area.
Rotenberg GG 2019, Gut Hermannsberg
The Nahe region is named after the river that crosses the forested Hunsrück Hills valleys. Although the Nahe is one of the smaller German wine regions, its extraordinary range of soil types is second to none. For this reason, the region is able to grow a range of varieties and produce a large diversity of wine styles. However, like the Mosel, there are many steep vineyard sites here, and while they can produce great quality, the effort required to farm them has led to many being abandoned.
Mavrotragano 2019, Artemis Karamolegos Winery
Mavrotragano is a dark-skinned grape grown mainly on the Cyclades islands, with some great examples from Santorini and Tinos. In recent years a few efforts occurred on the mainland with commercial success and helped Mavrotragano to find its place. However, although the variety has already gained a high-quality status, its full potential still needs to be discovered.
Montecucco 2015, Peteglia
Montecucco DOCG lies on the southwest hillsides of Amiata Mountain, directly opposite the Brunello di Montalcino slopes. The two zones share many similarities, but also many various. Sangiovese is the main red variety for both regions, but even if Montecucco has the potential to reach the quality level of Brunello, they do not share the same status.
Les Forts de Latour 1992, Château Latour
Les Fortes de Latour is the second label of Château Latour. It is a common practice in the Bordeaux region of all the major Château to produce a second less expensive label than the Grand Vin yet produced with the same meticulous care as the Grand Vin, both in the vineyard and in the winery. The main differences between the second label and the Grand Vin are the grapes' origin (young vines or less prominent plots), the new oak proportion and usually the higher proportion of Merlot in the final blend.
Even now, after I have tasted the Les Fortes de Latour, I struggle to believe that it was in such an excellent condition. After all, it is a 30-year-old wine!
Cuvée Spéciale Extra Brut, Karanika
Laurens Hartman is or should be a case study in the Greek wine scene. He came from Holland, tired of the urban way of life and searching for a place he could enjoy life. Who could ever imagine that this place would be the unfriendly Amyndeon?
Le Sang de la Pierre 2017, Aivalis Winery
Sotiris and Christos Aivalis are famous among wine lovers who appreciate seriously made red wines. If not the best, indeed, one of the top three producers in the Nemea region.
