2021	Nicodemi	Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 'Le Murate'	The nose is earthy, savory and slightly salty, but gentle, with aromas of black olive, sun-dried tomato, dried thyme, blackberries and black plum. On the palate, a current of milk chocolate brings out a sweeter dark-fruit element, while firm tannins and vibrant acid provide both structure and energy. Best Buy.	Wine Enthusiast	90		2025-05-20
2021	Nicodemi	Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Colline Teramane 'Notari'	The palate is mostly crushed dark berries, dirt and brush, but hints of fresh raspberries and strawberries provide a warming lift. On the palate, the earthiness crescendos through a bitter, warm, spicy finish that positively crackles with pepper.	Wine Enthusiast	91		2025-05-20
2022	Nicodemi	Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Colline Teramane 'Notari'	The 2022 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Colline Teramane Notari entices with a dusting of confectionary spices, lavender and wild blueberries. This is a total pleasure on the palate, cool and sleek with ripe wild berry fruit and a hint of citrus propelled by juicy acidity. It finishes with outstanding length and potency. A coating of fine tannins frames the experience without slowing its momentum.	Vinous	92		2025-05-08

2020	Nicodemi	Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Colline Teramane Riserva 'Neromoro'	The beastly and savage 2020 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva Colline Teramane Neromoro tempts the imagination with its depths of crushed blueberry and blackberry offset by a whiff of ashen stones and a minty herbal resonance. Silken to the core and quite elegant, it washes across the palate with grace, leaving a crackling of minerals and an air of lavender toward the close. This finishes with a staining of red and black fruit, sweet tannins and a pleasant bitter twang that keeps the taster looking back to the glass for more.	Vinous	94		2025-05-08

2024	Lava Cap	Chardonnay El Dorado	This partially barrel-fermented wine offers aromas of green apples and Meyer lemons that are modestly spiced by nutmeg, toast and butter. Full-bodied but well balanced and lively, countering good fruit ripeness with acidity. Only 6% new oak is used. Drink now or hold.	James Suckling	92		2025-05-07
2022	Castellroig Sabate i Coca	Brut	The 2022 Reserva Brut was produced with a blend of Xarel·lo, Macabeu, Parellada and Chardonnay that matured in bottle, where it refermented with lees for two year. It comes in at 12% alcohol, with high acidity and freshness and with some 6.1 grams of sugar (which has been reduced in the last few years). It has a bright yellow color and a bright and savory nose, nuanced and complex. It has a dry palate and some chalky sensations with a bitter twist in the finish. 23,450 bottles produced. It was disgorged in December 2024.	Wine Advocate	91		2025-05-07
2022	Castellroig Sabate i Coca	Brut Rosat	The 2022 Brut Rosat was produced with a blend of indigenous grapes, 49% Trepat, 21% Sumoll, 17% Garnacha and 13% Xarel.lo, and has some 6.9 grams of sugar. It has a pale color, almost like a blanc de noirs, and a subtle and clean nose, without terrible complexity but very pleasant and going beyond the stereotype of a rosé with some camphor and Mediterranean notes. It spent 24 months in bottle and was disgorged in January 2025. 10,778 bottles were produced.	Wine Advocate	90+		2025-05-07
