I COLOMBI CHIANTI CLASSICO 2022 DOCG, Tuscany, Italy (Castello di Querceto) 48006 (XD) 750 ml $25.95 2 A well-balanced, refined and delicious Chianti Classico. On the nose it expresses notes of dark cherries, dried thyme, roasted meat and sweet spices. It’s full-bodied with fine tannins. Focused, with plenty of drive and a velvety core of red berries and spices at the center. Lively and well composed, with a long, flavorful finish. Drink or hold. Score: 93 (jamessuckling.com, July 22, 2024) VOYAGER SHIRAZ 2022 Margaret River, Western Australia 713115 (XD) 750 ml $24.95 2 ... Bright red fruits on the nose with traces of dried herbs complementing the perfume ... The palate is more about savoury dried herbs. Has plenty of oak and powerful fruit ... It’s bright and alive with so much energy in the palate. A slightly chalky tannin dominance impacts the finish. Cellar 10 years. Score: 94 (Ray Jordan, rayjordanwine.com.au, undated) Full-bodied & Firm New at Vintages
