TOP 100 WINES
TUSCANY: BEST BOLGHERI
96 | Le Macchiole
$130
2018 Toscana Paleo Rosso ^ The 2018 growing
season's frequent rain required Le Macchiole's
team to work overtime in the vineyards,
removing leaves to aerate the bunches.
As harvest approached, ample sunshine
brought the cabernet franc grapes to full
maturation. Their work paid off -along with
the decision, starting in the 2013 vintage, to
reduce the toast levels on their barriques-
coming together in the freshness and elegance
of this 2018, its fl avors of crunchy
black plum laced with notes of fennel fronds,
tobacco and mint. -S.J. § Vintus, NY
BEST BRUNELLO
yet seemingly weightless, buoyed by a cool,
taut structure that draws out those spice
notes on a long and lavender-scented fi nish.
-S.J. § Vintus, NY
LEBANON
BEST ROSÉ
96 | Chateau Musar
$57
2018 Bekaa Valley Gaston Hochar This
tastes more like a red wine that happens to
be pale in hue than a typical rosé. It's made
mostly from two indigenous white grapes,
obaideh and merwah, with a little cinsault.
Grown in the high elevations of Mount Lebanon,
the old, own-rooted bush vines seem to
channel their strength and intensity in this
wine. Fermented and aged in French oak
barrels, the wine feels broad and rich, with
ample notes of marzipan, candied orange,
sour cherries, licorice and herbs. At the same
time, the acidity keeps it feeling electric, as if
it's reacting with the salinity in the wine, so
that the fl avors glow. This is delicious now
but it also feel like it has the energy to age
another decade or more. -T.Q.T. § Broadbent
Selections, Richmond, VA
97 | SanCarlo
$46
2017 Brunello di Montalcino ^ This small
estate near Tavarnelle in Montalcino's southwestern
sector seems to fl y under the radar,
perhaps because the Marcucci family farms
just seven acres and makes only a few thousand
bottles each year. Their 2017 Brunello is
a wine to track down if you can. Its fresh fl oral
scents and bright red-cherry fl avors defy
the hot and dry conditions of the vintage, the
wine gaining depth with air as it takes on layers
of tobacco and spice. The wine's powerful,
leathery tannins will support aging, but
the fl avors are so lifted and graceful that it's
impossible to resist now. -S.J. §North Berkeley
Imports, Berkeley, CA
BEST TUSCAN MERLOT
98 | Masseto
$850
2019 Toscana Masseto ^ The 2019 Masseto is
a downright gorgeous wine, its lush fl avors
of plum, licorice and dark chocolate riding
on tannins that are ripe and fi nely honed,
showing not a single hard edge. Brimming
with notes of anise, grilled game and toasted
nuts, the fl avors are intensely concentrated
