    PiedmontOdds and EndsBY ANTONIO GALLONI | MAY 7, 2025This small update covers a selection of wines that havecome across my desk in between major reports. Many of the wines are from Roero,a small appellation that lies across the Tanaro River from Barbaresco. Arneisand Nebbiolo can be especially fine here. © 2025, Vinous.

    2024 Château les Carmes Haut-Brion, Pessac-Léognan, Bordeaux Description 48% Cabernet Franc; 29% Cabernet Sauvignon; 23% Merlot. This is beautifully constructed. A radical use of whole-bunch fermentation – 52% this year – brings freshness and aromatic lift. The slightly increased proportion of new oak (70%), alongside large foudres and amphorae, adds depth and complexity without overshadowing the wine’s purity.

    About this wine Champagne Billecart-Salmon was founded in 1818 in the village of Mareuil-sur-Aÿ near Epernay. It remains family-owned and run; Mathieu Roland-Billecart represents the seventh generation here, following in the footsteps of founders Nicolas-François Billecart and Elisabeth Salmon. In 1668, Dom Pérignon is said to have discovered how to make sparkling wine; today his technique is used the world over, although Champagne continues to make some of the finest.

    Roederer CristalFull Circle: 1993-2015BY ANTONIO GALLONI | DECEMBER 06, 2023My visit to Roederer a few months ago, the first post-COVID-19, was memorable. After a survey of the 2022 vins clairs, longtime Chef de CavesJean-Baptiste Lécaillon presented a vertical of every Cristal he has made andreleased since assuming his current role in 1999. It was an incrediblyinstructive tasting that encompassed several themes over what has arguably beenthe most significant period in Roederer’s long history.
