Tenuta Perano Chianti Classico 2016, Docg, Italy
Tuscany, Italy$28.39
Nice vibrant Chianti here, with ripe cherry inflected fruit and a wash of minerality and earthiness across the middle. Tart, snappy and quite long. Classic idiom. Drinking well now but will hold a few more.

Schug Pinot Noir 2017
California, Usa$34.95
Nice ruby colour. Quite penetrating nose of fresh strawberries, with something minerally almost earthy beneath. Med bodied, bright berry fruit and good acid zing to keep it fresh. Lingering mineral finish. Highly drinkable and true to the variety. You can tell they aim for a classic, cooler climate PN vibe. This delivers.
Jean Max Roger Cuvée La Grange Dîmière Sancerre Rouge 2015, Ac
Loire, France$29.95
Quite deep colour. Nose is a bit closed; hints of small berries, red candy and spice. Med bodied, firm with tart fruit and noticeable acidity. Lingering anise-inflected finish. Very much a Loire expression of PN and a bit austere. May develop more charm in a year or two. Fair value.
