Ceretto, Cheval Blanc, and Clarendon Hills

2004 Ceretto Barolo Bricco Rocche;
Ruby red, intence, youthfull, leather, liquorice, and rose hip rather than roses. Great acidity and monumental ripe tannins. Lots of complexity, and this wine will need cellaring, easily 20 years. Long finish with pure fruit. 89


2001 Chateau Cheval Blanc;
Ruby with some sediments. Very closed, blackcurrants and bell peppers. After more air, a truly elegant and complex nose, expensive leather, cigars, tobacco, red fruits. Great acidity, ripe tannins, fresh and elegant and the scidity really refresh and cleans the palate. Exceptionnal balance,and mothfeel. A trylu great wine. Cellar it long if you're lucky enough! 95


2005 Clarendon Hills Syrah Hickinbotham;
Dark ruby, almost opaque. Totally closed nose, some pepper over dark fruit way in the back, and some raw meat. Huge, intence, the acidity barelly manage to be fresh with this intence and big body, a bit short finish. Big and bold, but where is the elegance and complexity? 79
