“un vino che recensisco con più di 90 punti, è ECCEZIONALE, e va acquistato senza dubbio”

LES CRÊTES VALLE D’AOSTA FUMIN 2017:  93 Points

Such freshness, but also complexity here in the form of black raspberries, blueberries and elderberries. A touch of balsamic then rises high through the olfactory bulb. Fascinating terracotta notes permeate the palate, which is only medium-to full-bodied yet deep and flavorful. Fine, silky tannins portray an ornate, detailed tapestry of flowery dark fruit. Drink now or hold.

LES CRÊTES SYRAH VALLE D’AOSTA 2017 : 93 Points

Pure blue fruit, ranging from violets to blueberries to black raspberries, together with characteristic spicy notes of black pepper and dried cloves complete the picture of a really pretty syrah with excellent typicity. Lithe but very taut on the palate, the tannins exhibit a supple quality to match the edgy acidity and mineral undertones. Beautiful. Drink now.

LES CRÊTES PINOT NERO VALLE D’AOSTA 2018:  91 Points

A very pretty pinot noir that shows loads of soaked fruit, ranging from blueberry compote to raspberry puree. Medium-bodied, fruity and round with fine tannins and bright acidity. Drink now.

LES CRÊTES VALLE D’AOSTA NEIGE D’OR 2017 : 94 Points

A beautiful and complete white with sliced-apple, mango, apricot and stone aromas and flavors. Full body. Very intense and focused. Excellent length. A unique and beautiful wine. Drink or hold.

LES CRĘTES CHARDONNAY VALLE D’AOSTA CUVEE BOIS 2017: 93 Points

Beautiful chardonnay with cooked apples, cream and lightly toasted oak, together with lemon undertones. Full body. Layered and creamy textured. Mountain chardonnay ! Drink or hold.

LES CRETES TORRETTE SUPERIORE VALLE D’AOSTA 2017: 94 Points

Beautiful, pure raspberries here, as well as hibiscus, fruit tea, citrus and rhubarb. This is a wine all about transparency, not power. Driven acidity highlights colorful berries, which flit between fine layers of silky tannins and deeper depressions of flavorful, stoney alleys. A pretty, ornately textured wine with salty undertones throughout. Drink now.
