Wimbledon Wine Cellar: The Best Selection of Fine Wine in London
*NEW RELEASE* A rich, round, and fruity expression of the vintage. The Barbaresco 2020 shows notes of strawberry, red fruit, and cherry. The palate shows great integration of the tannins, more rounded than in 2019 yet gentle and graceful.

“…a spellbinding, timeless classic in the making” 99 points, Greg Sherwood, MW
The2019 vintage started early and ended later than normal. Spring saw good levels of rainfall which helped maintain water storage levels ready for the warmer months. Summer was one of the hottest on record in Montalcino area. August was marked by cooler temperatures and some rain that replenished water reserves.
The Costanti family has owned this 10-hectare estate in Montalcino for over 200 years. In the latter part of the 19th century, Count Tito Costanti [1827-1895], Clementi Santi and Ferruccio Biondi Santi were pioneers in Montalcino.
SAVE 20% on this gorgeous Fleurie from Louis Jadot's Chateau des Jacques.
Rich and generous with lovely juicy fruit balanced with finely grained tannins and fresh acidity. A vibrant wine.

The 2022 Bourgogne Roncevie has commendable fruit concentration on the nose, with black cherries and bilberry fruit. The palate is well-balanced, and the 10% new oak neatly integrated. It is quite sweet, with touches of blackcurrant pastilles towards the finish. Fine.
Wine Safari Score: 91-92+/100 Greg Sherwood MW. Made from a blend of three separate plots, this Nuits is deep, dark and broody, a very serious offering with layers of savoury black fruits and a smoky graphite minerality.
Wine Safari Score: 91-93/100 Greg Sherwood MW Sourced from the Aux Communes plot, the nose shows savoury red and black berry fruits, some earthy hints, and a classic Asian five spice complexity over a subtle struck flint reduction notes.
Wine Safari Score: 92-93+/100 Greg Sherwood MW An alluring, exotic aromatics of black currant, black plum, musk and pink flowers before more traditional dusty mineral limestone notes. There is a lovely breadth and depth of flavour in the mouth, creamy fine-tuned mineral tannins and a long, fresh, harmonious finish.
Wine Safari Score: 93-95/100 Greg Sherwood MW. A very sophisticated wine whispering true class and pedigree. The aromatics are delicate, intricate and wonderfully perfumed with notes of violets, rose petals, red cherries and pink musk.
Wine Safari Score: 92-94+/100 Greg Sherwood MW. Deep, expressive and very classy, the nose shows perfumed spicy rose petal notes before meatier red and black fruits over crushed limestone, struck flint and a certain sapidity.
(89-91) Neal Martin The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Village, aged in 10% new oak and completely de-stemmed, has an attractive bouquet demonstrating a little more nuance than the Morey Village. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chewy tannins on the entry.
