  • 2018 The Sadie Family ‘Columella’ Red

    $129.99

    Winemaker Notes

    The presence of Syrah is in decline in the final blend and the influence of Grenache, Cinsaut, Carignan and Tinta Barocca is more pronounced. The Mourvèdre component is the strongest it has ever been and has brought an amazing dynamic about in terms of the finishing of the wine – persistence.

    2018 is a wine with a big temperament: explosive, but not excessive. It is like a plane with perfect aerodynamics, flying effortlessly; very much in line with 2001, 2008, and 2011.

It’s light to medium-bodied but with a pleasant, silky texture and plenty of length. – Joe Czerwinski

  • Bava Langhe – Nebbiolo

    $23.99

    Piedmont, Italy: Moscato d’ Asti

    The color of the wine is a ruby red, lively and pleasant. Its bouquet reminds of flowers and fruits, like small red fruits or violets, but it has also a spicy note. On the palate, the taste is elegant, full-bodied and savoury, characteristics due to its rounded tannins typical of Castiglione Falletto cru.
