WInes By The Glass

NV · Champagne, France · 92 pts Wine Enthusiast
Lanson's famed nonvintage cuvée is back on form, giving a ripe style dominated by Pinot Noir. It has weight and already a fine balance between the fruits and touches of toast from four years on the lees

2019 · Sicily
Intense red with shades of violet. On the nose, nuances of red fruits and aromatic spices, rich in
blackberries, black cherries, blueberries, black pepper, licorice, and dark chocolate. Great balance
between tannins and acidity. Starting soft and captivating while finishing with an intense expressive
profile. 100% Nero d'Avola

A powerful, old-school wine. Dark cherry, plum, scorched earth, game, licorice and tar give the 2018 plenty of complexity. Big, potent tannins lend quite a bit of muscle, but there is more than enough fruit and overall balance to support many years in the cellar. Dark red fruit, mint, spice and licorice linger. This is very nicely done

Deep ruby red with aromas of forest fruits such as blackberry, raspberry and cranberry that dominate delicate cocoa and cedar. On the palate, bright red fruits like raspberry and cranberry give length and structure to help elevate layers of cedar, clove and cocoa that are so gracefully interwoven throughout
