Rated estate (2020 guide) 1*Star (A high-quality, recommendable wine that lives up to expectations for its appellation(s))

About the estate:

This talented winemaker has generated a great deal of enthusiasm among wine lovers, but we don’t always understand why when tasting his wines. Many seem too heavy or lack purity and finesse despite their substantial body. Every now and then, a dazzling wine restores our confidence—most often a white.

Wine rated (2019 guide) 17/20 (Great wine)

Rated estate (2021 guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)

About the wine:

Notes of garrigue, vine peach, and cherry pit in the very promising Mursaglia red, which will be bottled in the summer of 2019. We are very confident about its aging potential.

About the estate:

After working as a vineyard manager at the Leccia estate, Nicolas Mariotti Bindi took over an old, abandoned winery on the road to Oletta in 2015. He worked tirelessly to restore this facility, which allows him to better manage his production and work using gravity. The vineyard is certified organic, and the soils are cultivated according to best practices. Wine production takes place in stainless steel tanks and 16-hectoliter cement eggs. These authentic wines, always full-bodied and velvety, offer a great frankness of flavors and are delicious in their youth, but also have the potential to age well. Their high quality and unfailing consistency have earned the estate its second star this year.

Review and comment by Mr. GAETAN C. Published on April 12, 2021

Heavy tannins and little expressiveness. Clearly lacks richness. Worth revisiting in 6–7 years? As it stands, it’s no pleasure to drink.
