Rosé Recap - three individual wines all available for immediate delivery

Each year, we taste through a number of rosé in order to find examples that we believe show individuality and high quality, not forgetting that rosé should above all be refreshing. Today a hugely popular category, if you feel you're in need of a bit of navigation, please consider the following range which includes some new discoveries, as well as new vintages of wines already known to us and that continue to impress. Today's rain aside, the sun and fine weather are finally upon us, so I thought it would be a good time to send out a Rosé Recap, all available for immediate delivery.

Please note, prices below include duty and VAT, and delivery will be charged at £9.95 for up to 10 cases.

2018 Partida Pedrer Rosat, Sara I Rene Viticultors
£190.08 per 6 bottle case including duty and VAT

Perhaps the most distinctive rosé we have tasted for some time, this fascinating natural wine from Priorat has a smoky, leesy note, reminiscent of vintage Champagne, underscored by summer berry fruit, herbs and spices, and a mineral energy. This is a classy and complex rosé, so individual and remarkably fine...do give it a chance to breathe before serving. Drink 2021-2025+

2019 Il Rosato, Nervi
£109.68 per 6 bottle case including duty and VAT

100% Nebbiolo and crafted by Barolo legend Giacomo Conterno, it isn’t surprising that that this complex rosé has impressed us for three straight vintages now. Dry and zesty, subtly floral with flavours of red berry fruit and an orangey tang of acidity, this characterful wine offers incredible value. Drink 2020-2022

2019 SOF Rosato, Tenuta Campo di Sasso
£124.08 per 6 bottle case including duty and VAT
I recently retasted this and found it incredibly appealing...a blend of Syrah and Cabernet Franc, this Tuscan rosé is incredibly attractive: softly styled, with creamy red berry fruit and a subtle spicy note…this is a rounded, textural rosé, a bit fuller than most pale Provençal styles, with a bright acidity running through leading to a persistent finish. Drink 2021-2022

All these rosé are in stock with us, and available for immediate delivery. Do please let us know of your interest.

Best wishes

Laura

Atlas Fine Wines' Simon Larkin MW reviews 12 Saint-Julien 2005 Châteaux

Learn about the wines of one of Bordeaux’s most consistent communes in our latest YouTube video. Join Simon as he shares his insights following an extensive tasting of all 11 Classified Growth Châteaux of Bordeaux’s Saint Julien appellation, plus one outlier. All the wines tasted were from the 2005 vintage – "one of the greatest vintages Bordeaux has ever produced." As Simon suggests, Saint-Julien may lack a First Growth Château but, tasting wines such as Léoville-Las Cases and Ducru-Beaucaillou in such a great vintage, it is hard to argue that they are not of First Growth quality. See below for Simon's tasting notes.

Our Poggio Al Vento tasting and dinner

Our Poggio Al Vento tasting and dinner

Yesterday evening, we were delighted to host a special tasting and dinner at Enoteca Turi in Sloane Square with Santiago Marone Cinzano, winemaker at Col d'Orcia, showcasing a range of vintages of their highly regarded single vineyard wine, the Poggio Al Vento Brunello di Montalcino Riserva. Atlas' Managing Director Simon Larkin MW comments, 'yesterday’s Poggio Al Vento tasting and dinner highlighted just how impressive Col d’Orcia’s single vineyard Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is. We were fortunate to be joined by Santiago Marone Cinzano, the 10th generation of winemaker, and were guided through a vertical tasting of vintages spanning 2012 to 1995. While each vintage impressed in different ways, the overall consistency was outstanding. Some vintages showed greater capacity for ageing than others, but the consensus suggested that in a great vintage, this wine is capable of ageing for 20-30 years with ease. Indeed, the 1995 and 1999 showed no signs of fading and continued to blossom in the glass long after being first poured from a double decanted bottle – quite astonishing from a couple of wines aged 29 and 25 years of age respectively. The 2004 and 2006 vintages were certainly drinking beautifully, showing stunning ripe fruit, complex tertiary notes but equally a fine freshness that belies their age. These two vintages promise to deliver even greater complexity over time. The 2012 was comfortably the most forward drinking of the flight, showing a redder fruit character and appealing silkiness on its supple palate. The 2008, an altogether more dense and powerful wine with darker, liquorice nuances in the fruit profile, was well into its drinking window yet showed no signs of fading soon. The entire range underlined the fact that Col d’Orcia craft outstanding, traditional Brunello with a great potential for ageing. As I commented at the tasting, much is made of early pronouncements of greatness these days, but proof of true greatness is only confirmed with bottle age. A number of the wines we showed yesterday easily justified the term ‘great’; it was fascinating to taste a vertical of such a fine Brunello. While Poggio al Vento may not be as well-known as some Riservas, it is our opinion that it ranks alongside the very best examples from Montalcino.'   The tasting featured a line-up of the following wines:  Tenuta Col d’Orcia Rosso di Montalcino 2013 (en magnum) Tenuta Col d’Orcia Poggio al Vento, Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG 2012 Tenuta Col d’Orcia Poggio al Vento, Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG 2008 Tenuta Col d’Orcia Poggio al Vento, Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG 2006 Tenuta Col d’Orcia Poggio al Vento, Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG 2004 Tenuta Col d’Orcia Poggio al Vento, Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG 1999 Tenuta Col d’Orcia Poggio al Vento, Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG 1995
