Really fantastic with food. Wonderful cherry notes without being in any way cloying. Or at least with mushrooms braised extensively with garlic and the wine, and halibut. Would definitely buy again. — 2 years ago

Lovely 2008 Barbaresco that I purchased after an hour or two sipping vertical flights at the Ceretto tasting room. It is lovely. Delicate but present tannins, wonderful cherry character, some earthy notes on the end. Not crazily complex, but happily not a tannic monster. It’s a joyful, elegant friend I’d love to spend time with every day from Oct-April. Paired nicely with a dinner of polenta bathed in porcini and shitakes. Happy, happy. If you want a sinister Bordeaux to knock you on your backside, this isn’t for you. Which leaves more for me! — 4 years ago

Very velvety, fruit forward rioja. Plummy fruits and maybe the slightest touch of tobacco. Definitely would buy again. — 4 years ago

This is one of my favorite Beaujolais that I’ve had. I should note I live in the US, where Beaujolais is far and few between. This has lovely, slightly dark fruits, a happy wine. Not a lot of structure, but I wouldn’t expect that in Beaujolais. I can’t seem to find it in the US, or I’d buy some. — 4 years ago

Drinking the Gran Reserva, 2012. Just a lovely wine, full bodied but not overpowering, structured but no tannic bite. Nice fruit. Really good with rich food. — 4 years ago

I had this a few nights ago. I did not decant. My memory of precise flavor profile is not great, but lovely dark fruits, nice in the mouth, decent finish. If you like your burgundy bone dry, this isn’t for you. I really enjoyed it and think it’s very good quality at its price point. I’ll purchase again. — 4 years ago
