The DuMol: Fruit-forward Viognier (less floral). But what’s there is a lot of fun, with notes of peaches, passion fruit, lemon, and honeysuckle complimented by a touch of oak. It has a medium(+) & slightly viscous body, medium acidity, and high alcohol with a clean, dry finish. 91 points.

Beaux Freres: Beautiful. Medium intensity aromas of red cherries & berries, mint, forest floor & spices. Medium-bodied, w/medium tannins medium(+) acidity. Medium(+) intensity flavors of spiced cherries, red currant, blackberries & earth, with savory/mushroom notes. It will get even better w/time.

Wiemer: Plenty of life, though cork shows signs of age. Clear lemon color w/hint of green. Medium aromas & medium(+) intensity flavors of petrol, lemon-lime, tart peach/pineapple & acacia. Medium-bodied & off-dry, high acidity, 12.5 ABV & long finish. Time in glass brings subtle notes of hay & wax.

Visited Ricasoli in 2009. Beautiful place and I’ve always enjoyed their wines.

This leaves aside that adopting sustainable practices is just the right thing to do, not that we give a crap about that.
