New Arrivals2020 CA' VENDRI AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA, VENETO, ITALY
REGULAR: 50 - ON SALE: 35 - IN A CASE OF 12: 31.50 Under $70 - maybe; Under $60 - hm, but under $40 - no way. Well, we found one!!! The most prized (if not the most powerful) expression of the wines of Valpolicella, Amarone della Valpolicella wines are famously robust, red wines made in the Veneto. Amarone della Valpolicella is an intensely flavored dry red wine made from dried (passito) grapes. It is made in the Veneto region of northeastern Italy, and is one of the region's most prestigious red wines. There are many different styles of Amarone. This is in the classic style, not too overbearing with fruitiness. "The Ca’ Vendri Amarone from Cantina Ville di Antanè tastes of red cherry with notes of black cherry emerging through the finish. The nose is earthy and full of cherry, plum, raspberry and spice notes." |
Cellar SelectionTHE LEGENDARY OPUS ONE
The groundbreaking concept for Opus One was forged by Robert Mondavi of the Napa Valley and Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Bordeaux’s Château Mouton Rothschild. From the very first vintage in 1979 it has represented the perfect fusion of Bordeaux and the Napa Valley. Mouton Rothschild winemakers crafted Mondavi’s grapes into fantastic wine and aged it in French oak barrels. Rumors turned heads while tales and legends formed in the beginning days of what started as an elusive wine, but one thing remained consistent: Quality, vintage after vintage. For decades now the winemaking has been under the direction of Michael Silacci, who ensures the Bordeaux varietals grown in some of Napa’s most coveted vineyards – including the famed To Kalon vineyard – are rigorously selected to achieve quality akin to a First Growth Bordeaux. With its remarkable ability to be enjoyable upon release and longevity capable of decades in the cellar, Opus One continues to be one of the most sought-after California wines in the world for collectors. Cose di Lusso is offering you the opportunity to add this wonderful meeting of two cultures to your cellar - vintages 2012 to 2019 in regular sized or Magnum bottles. |
Feature2019 SILVER OAK NAPA VALLEY CABERNET SAUVIGNON 219 A BOTTLE - 197.10 IN A CASE OF 12 Here comes the long awaited release of the 2019 vintage of Silver Oak's Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Composition: Blended in early 2020, the wine is composed of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot and 1% Malbec. Tasting Notes (Winery): "Expressive and lively on the nose, the 2019 Silver Oak Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon has a black cherry and huckleberry aroma laced with dry floral notes. Integrated oak adds a light note of sweet nutmeg to this wine. Ruby in color, it has a fruit-forward entry with silky tannins that builds across the mid-palate and through a long and balanced finish. Structured while still approachable, this wine remains true to the signature Silver Oak winemaking style and will continue to improve through 2047 given proper cellaring conditions." |
