Chateau Clerc Milon 2009 RP:93    This is a vintage with great purity on the nose, almost with the quality of a fine Burgundy. Initially, the aroma is slightly reserved but gradually unfolds to reveal black cherries, blueberry compote, blackcurrant preserves, prunes, and hints of herbs, fertile loam, and pencil lead.    On the palate, it has a medium body, tight structure, and fine, juicy, and sticky tannins, creating a substantial, thick mouthfeel. It offers concentrated black fruit flavors with earthy undertones.    The finish is very persistent, with notes of cedar, fresh mint, and pine cones. Overall, it is exceptionally well-balanced, with a delicate and fresh texture, and still possesses significant aging potential.

This smooth example of Dry Muscat a subtle sense of the exotic and a unique version of this ancient varietal that saw a gentle crushing and direct press to used French oak barrels for fermentation and aging. Muscat, also known as Moscato Gialla, Zibibbo, Muscat of Alexandria and or Muskateller is found from North Africa to Australia, though more common in Alsace, France, the United States and in Germany’s Pfalz region along with Italy’s Piedmonte region where is is famously grown for their Moscato d’Asti. Muscat is a highly perfumed grape with a striking Jasmine nose and can be done in many styles, as we see throughput to old and new world, with sweet, sparkling, dry and tawny editions being some of the wide range of Muscat offerings. There are many theories as to the origins of the Muscat grape, with its ancestors go back to the ancient Egyptians and Persians of early antiquity (c. 3000-1000 BC) while some ampelographers, such as Pierre Galet, believe that the family of Muscat varieties were propagated during the period of classical antiquity (c. 800 BC to 600 AD) by the Greeks and Romans. Because the exact origins of the Muscat family cannot be pinpointed we are relying on what maybe be myth that the grape originated in the Arabian country of Oman and was named after the city of Muscat located on the coast of the Gulf of Oman. There are at least 14 main Muscat offspring and the grape can be made sweet, dry and sparkling, as well as fortified with spirit for long lived desert wines or even Tawny Port, as done in Australia.

Dal Forno Romano unveils ‘one of the great vintages of the century’ 08 NOVEMBER 2023 By Louis Thomas Dal Forno Romano, based in Val d’Illasi, Veneto, has offered a preview of its 2016 Valpolicella Superiore and Amarone della Valpolicella, a vintage it has chosen to hold back and release after its 2017s With this year also marking 40 years since its first harvest in 1983, Dal Forno Romano, part of Pol Roger Portfolio in the UK, will be releasing its 2016 Valpolicella Superiore later this week, and the 2016 Amarone della Valpolicella next year. Speaking to the drinks business, CEO Marco Dal Forno, who inherited the winery from his father Romano, explained what makes a good vintage in the region: “A great vintage in Valpolicella occurs when the seasonal trend is balanced and the weather is favourable. These two factors ensure that the plants are not stressed and that the grapes are healthy. Lastly, decisive factors, which depend on human intervention, are the timeliness and care with which work is carried out in the vineyard. It is necessary to be able to read the vintage and also the vineyard well to ensure that work is carried out effectively and in the adequate proportion.” “2016 will surely be remembered in the future as one of the great vintages of the century,” he continued. “There are two main reasons: the rainfall was neither too heavy nor too light, and the temperatures were never too extreme. We can therefore speak of a balanced vintage, which was reflected in the high quality of the grapes.” However, it was by no means an ‘easy’ vintage, if such a thing ever exists, as Dal Forno explained: “In terms of quantity, we were affected by the terrible hailstorm on 19 May 2015, which left us with a limited production for 2016.” Approximately 70% of Dal Forno Romano’s crop was destroyed by the 2015 hail. “The quality level of the grapes, on the other hand, was excellent, albeit with some seasonal difficulties. The year began with a mild winter, with temperatures never dropping below 0°C. The vegetative recovery of the vines was therefore slightly early, but it immediately slowed down in May and June, when there was constant and generous rainfall. Together with February, May and June were the wettest months of the year. Temperatures also never exceeded 25°C, with most days remaining between 18 and 20°C. We had to wait until the end of June for temperatures to rise again. The unseasonably cold and humid weather was a harbinger of fungal attacks which threatened production.” “Fortunately,” Dal Forno concluded of the 2016 vintage, “the summer season continued with adequate weather without excessive temperatures, but also without any lack of rain. The vineyard thus continued to develop without stress and the grapes reached optimum ripeness. All in all, the harvest was marked by good weather, sunny and airy, which allowed us to harvest the grapes in a perfect state of health.”
