Didier Defaix describes 2017 as a vintage "where the frost did the same amount of damage that it did in 2016 but not necessarily in the same parcels. One of the really curious aspects of the two vintages is that we had more bunches in 2017 but not necessarily more juice. On the plus side, at least we didn't have the intense mildew pressure that we suffered through in 2016, which made the summer a lot less stressful. We chose to begin picking on the 11th of September and brought in ripe fruit that had both good sugars and acidities. The fruit was exceptionally clean which also helped us in terms of being able to pick rapidly. Another interesting aspect is that the alcoholic fermentations were quite slow yet the malos were relatively quick. As to the wines, despite the relatively early harvest date there is plenty of classic Chablis character. While the 2017s are not as austere and crystalline as the 2014s or as rich as the 2016s, the combination of the two makes for highly enjoyable wines that should drink well young but age well too." The now in-bottle 2016s, revisited below, were bottled in September 2017.

Here's a fresh and lovely red wine from Southern Tuscany. The 2013 Brunello di Montalcino offers a very bright and lively quality of fruit that you don't often get with Brunello, a wine that ages for five years (between oak barrel and in the bottle) before its commercial release. You taste the cherry and the dried raspberry here in all their purity and glory. The wine continues to the palate with softness and silky lines. Some 45,000 bottles were produced.

A wealth of raspberry and black cherry aromas with hints of flowers and walnut skin. Full body, chewy and tannic with a pretty underlining of fruit. Slightly ripe style yet remains fresh. Drink or hold.

Vinous 91
Medium-dark red; this is actually lighter in color than the 2016 Rosso from Tenuta di Sesta. Strong notes of tobacco, wet underbrush and botanical herbs camouflage red fruit and balsamic aromas. Enters bright and juicy, then more austere and steely, revealing a slightly bitter twist to the floral red berry flavors. This very graceful wine finishes long and vibrant, but I would have liked a little more generosity of fruit. Cellar this for five or six years and see if it fills out.

Wine Enthusiast 91
Aromas of dark berry, pipe tobacco and leather take shape in the glass. The savory, balanced palate offers juicy Morello cherry, strawberry and star anise alongside taut, polished tannins. Drink 2022–2028.

Mid ruby with bright orange tinges. Serious oatmeal nose that otherwise is still closed on the fruit. Ripe, gentle and mouth-filling fruit hitting the popular note. Long, and a little gripping and with oak and smoky notes on the finish. (WS)
