Fruity: black currant, plum, dark cherries. Medium minus acid. Slightly tannic on the front of the palate but then they smooth out. This wine isn’t overly structured. I like it but I feel an 09 should bring more to the table, literally and figuratively. — 13 days ago

Amazingly good. Very light in color, awesome nose and flavor. Like a traditional California Burgundy but better. — 2 months ago

Loved the ‘16. This was our first shot at the ‘17. If you don’t like it, you are probably not a Burgundy drinker. Typical, in the best possible way. — 21 days ago

Never going to be a great wine but was always decent. Being an ‘04 helps. 15 years on this is a really good wine, very much characteristic of the appellation. I would drink it NOW. — a month ago

FTW. Classic Sangiovese. Glad I have more of this. Rosemary steak pairing. Cherries, forest floor, a tiny bit of licorice in a good way. — 2 months ago

This was pretty great. We also just had the ‘09 a week ago. My wife compared it to an Acura NSX: powerful enough, sleek, reliable, and always food in every situation. I would agree. ABV was not overpowering, but palate was spot on. — a month ago

For what I paid, this was a ridiculously good wine. Phenomenal aroma (bottle says quince) but I think pear, apple works. On the palette, it also worked. With chicken scallapini, it was great. Like a more (not much, but super tasty) powerful vino verde. — 2 months ago

The legend. Not bad. Probably better a couple hundred years ago. Google the name. Like a Pinot Grigio, with a little more than all but the best of the PGs. — 2 months ago
