John Mariani of Bloomberg News recently tasted Pasquale Pelissero Dolcetto d’Alba 2008 and Aldo Conterno Langhe Dolcetto Masante 2007:
Pasquale Pelissero Dolcetto d’Alba 2008: “The estate’s Dolcetto d’Alba Cascina Crosa 2008, made in the Langhe region, has a very deep color and rich tannins. Micro-oxygenation enhances the fruit, so obvious in the bouquet. At 13 percent alcohol, this is a lovely, easy-to-drink expression of 21st-century Dolcettos.”
Aldo Conterno Langhe Dolcetto Masante 2007: “A stunning example of how a famous Barolo vintner can produce a Dolcetto of such quality is Aldo Conterno’s Masante 2007 from the Langhe region, where the vineyards were established in 1969. When I tasted the wine last week I was amazed at the depth and complexity that followed the expected deep purple color. It has aged impeccably, its fruit, acids and tannins in perfect harmony, and an extraordinary value at $20 a bottle.”

The Wine Spectator Website has given our Domaine du Chalet Pouilly Pouilly Fuisse 2007 a well-deserved 92 points:
“Shows fine intensity, with the vivid structure driving its stone, lemon and mineral flavors. This is almost too powerful now, but the long, smooth finish reveals both the harmony and the beauty of this white. Best from 2011 through 2022. 2,750 cases made.” –BS

Pico Maccario Monferrato Chiaretto Berro 2009 gets an 88 from Wine Advocate!
“Typical of a wine from a northerly climate, the 2009 Monferrato Chiaretto Berro’ from Maccario emerges from the glass with a high-toned bouquet that leads to a rush of fresh strawberries. Clean, mineral notes balance the finish. This is one of the more unusual rosés readers will come across but the balance is beyond reproach. The Monferrato Chiaretto Berro’ is 85% Barbera and 15% Freisa.”
