the 2018 Chardonnay Maresh is a dreamy wine with a cascade of wildflowers

A more reticent nose timidly offers up note of resin

The 2008 Brunello di Montalcino Cerretalto is one of those wines that is just born young

This is a Bonnes Mares of refinement and finesse that should age well on a base of balance

simultaneously juicy and velvety on the finish

Mastrojanni, Brunello Montalcino Vigna Loreto other_regions_italy the 2018 Chardonnay Maresh isFull bottle 1,303 g. Lustrous, shaded ruby. Fully mature, well knit nose and a palate that has definitely said goodbye to the tannins. Warm, ripe Sangiovese that caresses rather than challenges the palate. Sweet start and tangy finish. Medium length. A pleasure to drink now but this bottle gives the impression that the wine's peak has (just) passed. Mild and gentle.
