Château Tour Grand Faurie l’Efaurie Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

eve — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 04:48:27 +0000

This estate’s vines span two terroirs: the Faurie plot (sandy, iron-rich soils) and old-vine parcels in Saint-Christophe des Bardes (clay-chalk). A blend of 80% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, and 5% resurgent Malbec.
Pesticide-free for years, the vineyard uses grass cover and sheep to maintain biodiversity. Transitioning to organic, it holds HVE certification.
With restrained maceration and ageing, the wine delivers a classic, medium-bodied Saint-Émilion, perfect with roast meats or duck.

Monte dall’Ora Amarone Stropa

eve — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 04:47:37 +0000

From Valpolicella’s sun-drenched slopes comes this bold Amarone, the kind of wine that makes you pause mid-sip.
The 2015 Stropa delivers waves of dark cherry, fig jam and chocolate, with that signature Amarone richness balanced by surprising freshness. Made from air-dried grapes in the traditional way, it’s powerful without being heavy, the sort of bottle that turns an ordinary dinner into an occasion. Give it some air and watch it unfold.
