RED WINE

Aromas of black currants, dried fruit and cherry blend with subtle notes of anise, spice and cocoa. Tannins are rich and refined on the finish, a characteristic of Red Mountain fruit, with flavors of berries, black fruit and cocoa.

RED WINE

Rich, textural layers define HG III. The 2018 greets with lifted aromatics of bright
Bing cherry, dark plum, and cedar box, with subtle hints of Herbes de Provence,
cocoa powder and hoisin. A medley of saturated black cherry, crushed blueberry and
cola root burst forth on the palate, providing broad-shouldered, sumptuous texture.
Rich and concentrated, yet balanced by lively acidity, a refined structure and
will-integrated tannins, HG III delivers an eminently drinkable wine at cork-pull.

BOBBY’S PRIVATE COLLECTION

he gamy 2010 Brunello di Montalcino does a great job of presenting intensity and elegance all in the same delicious package. That’s not easy to do and the excellent 2010 fruit plays a big role in achieving this goal. The wine offers a long succession of aromas that span from ripe fruit, to smoked meat, to grilled herb and soft spice. Delicate tones of licorice, cola and anise seed add life and energy. The list goes on. The wine’s mouthfeel is best characterized by softness and structure, a two-fold approach that gives high hopes for the long aging potential of this wine. Valdicava’s Brunello will appeal to those who love earthy and leathery notes in their Brunello.

BOBBY’S PRIVATE COLLECTION

Valdicava’s 2013 Brunello di Montalcino is a beautifully saturated expression that opens to a dark garnet appearance and a soothing, velvety texture. The bouquet is packed tight with dark berry nuances, starting with ripe cherry and extending to black fruit tones of fresh prune and plum. The wine’s strongest cards are its texture, structure and its power. This is a cool vintage that produced very fine and accessible wines. This expression, however, shows a very different personality with ample volume and long staying power. Some 56,100 bottles were produced.

BOBBY’S PRIVATE COLLECTION

The 2009 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Madonna del Piano is an expressive and articulate wine that speaks highly of Sangiovese and the Montalcino territory. The wine offers a pristine narrative of both grape and place with crystalline aromas of cherry, blackberry, spice, leather, smoke and Mediterranean herb. The bouquet peels back one delicious layer at a time. The mouthfeel is similarly successful with deep concentration and complexity. It imparts soft layers of dried fruit and velvety tannins. Endnotes of espresso bean and toasted almond add length and momentum. There’s even spot of chewy sweetness that is typical of the warm 2009 vintage.
