Nero the way it should be, nervy, juicy and with an herbal note to complement its bright berry fruit. Occhipinti FTW. — a month ago

Every time I drink one of these bottles I kick myself for not buying more (even though I buy it by the half-case). Basically my favorite Nero d’Avola in the world. With age it shows leather and dried flowers, raisins and dried cherries and wonderful chalky mineralogy. Great acidity and powdery ethereal tannins. — 3 months ago

Nothing better for the money in the world. 22-year-old Spatlese singing it’s wet rocks and honeysuckle song with hints of dried citrus peel and a whiff of paraffin. The acidity in this is still electric. — a month ago

Stellar. Many young vintages of this wine show their oak more than this. Sure there’s a coconut whiskey barrel note but more prominently incredibly smooth and supple tannins wrapped around cherry and plum notes with hints of dried herbs and graphite. Stunner. Drink now or hold for three decades or anywhere in between. — 4 months ago

A bit of stuck match and candied lemon peel start you off the. You move into saline lemon electric brightness and crushed stones. Yum!! — 2 months ago

One of California’s most delicious wines, proving as it ages that it is more than just a pretty thing. Fruit mellowing but still juicy with herbs and floral notes reaching higher more expansive tones. My last bottle but wish I had 12 more. — 3 months ago

In lovely shape with biscuity butterscotch secondary aromas layered over the still-racy mineral brightness. — 3 months ago
