Quintarelli has essentially been a construction site for the last few years. During my most recent visit I was able to get a good look at the new facilities in a nearly finished state. I have to say the latest incarnation of the winery is stunning. The design is daring and modern - almost shockingly so - yet it also pays homage to Giuseppe Quintarelli's legacy in a deep and touching way. As for the wines, this set of new releases will delight Quintarelli fans. Even more importantly, the estate appears to be in very good hands under the stewardship of Francesco Quintarelli, Giuseppe's grandson.

The Quintarelli family has been through a lot over the last few years, but thankfully, things appear more settled down that at any other time in recent memory, which is great news for fans of this iconic estate, of which I am one. Bepi Quintarelli's grandson Francesco is making the wines and seems to have all the skills to be successful. For now, nothing much seems to have changed. The top wines spend years in cask and are bottled and sold only when ready. If there is one winery Quintarelli reminds me of it is Coche-Dury, as the estate inhabits a universe all on its own.
