Review Round-up (November ’21)
What's been said about our wines...
Fortunate to have been born in the great city of Liverpool and to fall into the world of wine. More than 20 years later I'm Boutinot's marketing manager for much of Europe (mostly Italy and Spain) and more than content with my compact family, including 3 cats (sadly just the 11 legs) and a 1969 'Dark Star' (no, not a wine!)
: 
We truly believe our wines are fantastic, but you already knew that – we wouldn’t sell them if we didn’t!
That said, it is always nice when someone else recognises the quality in our portfolio, even better when they write a lovely review in the press to tell everyone about it…
Here’s a round-up of what they’ve been saying about us this last month!
Uggiano Sangiovese Syrah ‘Il Sanzio’ 2020: “Meaty nose showing aromas of fleshy red plums, cherries and hints of black pepper. Elegant and well-structured, opulent and smooth. 91 pts.” Decanter (November 2021)
“Bright and stylish, Trentino’s 2019 Rulendis Pinot Grigio exhibits velvety pear, melon and peach flavours neatly complemented by sharp lime acidity, hints of ginger and a quinine-like savoury background.” Brian Elliott, Midweekwines.co.uk (November 2021)
San Felice Chianti Classico 2019: “Open and fluid, this evokes blackberry and blueberry fruit, framed by earth and underbrush notes, with a solid structure. Sangiovese blend. 90 pts.” Wine Spectator (31st October 2021)
Cline Cellars ‘Ancient Vines’ Mourvèdre 2019: “Quite ripe and packed with black-fruit flavours, this full-bodied, smooth wine also adds notes of chocolate, vanilla and cinnamon for extra complexity. It’s mouthfilling and luxurious in texture. 90 pts.” Jim Gordon, Wine Enthusiast – included in Wine Enthusiast’s Top 100 Best Buy 2021 list
