Les Hauts Du Castellas Vacqueyras 2007, Ac
Rhône, France$14.75
May 2013: Quite evolved now, with the fruit into the secondary stage. Lovley nose of violets, and just loaded with flavour. Drink soon, but still so delicious.
Sept 2011: Finally got around to cracking one of these open. A very nice surprise, combining clean ripe fruit flavours with lots of herb and garigue character -- rates high on the umami scale. Will hold well for a couple of years yet, but raring to go now.

Fattoria Di Basciano Il Corto 2007, Igt Rosso Dei Colli Della Toscana Centrale
Tuscany, Italy$27.95
Aug 2012: Very fine, and very Tuscan, with the Cab supporting the Sangiovese to give body and richness. Nose is full & ripe, with nice herbal notes and something like the "cigar box" you get from good Bordeaux. Full bodied, round and just loaded with earthy, umami-driven flavour --clean as a whistle, though, nothing funky. Lovely lingering finish. Lovely now, but plenty of life left.
