Domaine de Rancy Rivesaltes Ambré - Vintage 1973 (500ml) Fixin 1er Cru 'Clos Napoléon'40 Years in barrel. "Though not reviewed by any publication we can find, the 1973 vintage is one of our personal favorites. The wine walks the line between sweetness and acidity. The wine is nut brown at the core with a green gold edge. It features a rich and nutty aroma with notes of golden raisins, chocolate, toffee and caramel. The finish is bright and remarkably long.

lively and persistent on the palate

4% cabernet franc

Thanks to its heterogeneity and therefore its aromatic diversity

that doesn't mean that every traditionally made Barolo manages to achieve the harmony and elegance that we seek—but Brezza delivers
