The powerful finish is spicy and dusty with terrific intensity and ends on a note of velvet

ethereal finish is classic La Serra

classically austere Barolo that will especially delight readers with traditionally leaning palates

David & Nadia, Hoe-Steen Chenin Blanc other_regions_italy The powerful finish is spicyThe 2022 Hoe Steen Chenin Blanc comes from a vineyard of clay soils over limestone, with a south facing aspect that is among the last to ripen. The nose is open knit and expressive with layers of wet stone and spicy lemon skin. Medium bodied, the palate is balanced with good acidity before ending with a fresh, clean finish. It's delightful, but I still prefer the 2021 vintage.
