It's gorgeously fruited and inviting on the nose showing black/blueberry, rich floral and cedary oak characters with a hint of dried herb complexity. The palate is superbly concentrated and weighted, offering plush texture backed by fine-grained tannins, finishing impressively long and satisfying. Wonderfully composed and styled, offering terrific drinking. At its best: 2038.

The 1976 Colheita Tawny Port is a field blend, roughly Touriga Franca (35%), Tinta Roriz (20%), Touriga Nacional (15%), Tinta Barroca (10%) and others, bottled in May 2023 with a long cork and 123 grams of residual sugar. It is only here in the Colheita lineup from the producer this time that we begin to get some serious complexity, and that's why this one wins in the group. It is also, certainly, the most concentrated in flavors, leaning to dark caramel, although not as notable in mid-palate depth. Most of all, it has that nuanced finish. It still has notable freshness and it is still reasonably youthful, far from decayed. Nicely balanced and rather elegant, it is pretty tasty and hard to resist. This is a fine Colheita that wins points for both complexity and its tasty conclusion. As I like to note, barring cork failures, this will likely hold indefinitely. Of course, Colheitas don't need to be held, so dive in.

Deep ruby in the glass, this wine has a bouquet of cherry preserves, milk chocolate and dried marjoram. Mint and eucalyptus notes dominate the taste profile alongside notes of black cherry, mocha, tarragon and lavender. Brawny tannins are kept in check by energetic acidity. Best Buy.

Fresh apples, lemons, herbs and a hint of lychee on the nose. Medium body with fresh acidity and weight at the center. Dense and precise. Poised and restrained with a controlled power throughout. Focused finish with excellent length. Drink or hold.

The 2010 Barolo Riserva Bussia from Pianpolvere Soprano is a flat out stunner. It is also the first Barolo I've tasted under Rocche dei Manzoni's stuartship of this historic Monforte estate that takes me back to the wines of Ferruccio Fenocchio prior to his passing. Rose petal, mint, kirsh, spice and blood orange are some of the many notes that shape this exquisite, classically translucent Barolo. Medium in body and supremely refined, the 2010 is utterly beguiling. I can't wait to taste it with bottle age.

About the Winery
Weingut Bianka und Daniel Schmitt

Bianka and Daniel took over the Weingut Schmitt in 2012 as the fourth generation to lead the winery. They are based in Wonnegau in the south Rheinhessen, centered in Flörsheim-Dalsheim. All of the vineyards are in Flörsheim-Dalsheim and neighbor villages Monsheim and Kriegsheim. Bianka and Daniel have been working their 16 hectares biodynamically for over a decade and are one of only 80 producers in Germany to be Demeter certified. They work with amphorae as well as used oak barrels and release a ‘Natur’ line that contains no added sulphur.
Here are Bianka and Daniel in their own words:
“Working biodynamically is a lifestyle that includes producing and spreading preparations in the vineyards as well as social interactions. The interactions between the life in the soil (like bacteria, mykorizen, plants as green cover and the vines) are composed with each other. Vines become stronger and get more vitality from a living soil, not from chemical treatments.
This active interaction in the soil life, the mutual strengthening of the plants result in stronger resilience for the vines which reflects the high quality of the grape, supports the presence of the individual soil types (calcareous soil covered by clay and partly loess, pebble). By working according to the biodynamic principles, biodiversity is supported as an automatic successor. As a result, the vineyards and the biotopes created by Bianka and Daniel offer a home for a diverse and local animal community.
After hand picking, the grapes are processed with or without skin maceration. And rest in wooden oaks (5000L, 3000L, 1200L, 600L) or clay amphorae (1200L, 300L) for at least 12 months on the whole yeast depot. The focus is on offering an optimal aging potential for the years to come. In order to support the collegial exchange and to enable operational training in the field of biodynamic agriculture, Bianka and Daniel and their winery are proud members of the Renaissance des Appellations, Demeter and Vinnatur associations.”
