Decent for the price but nothing amazing. Lovely and elegant, maybe a burgundy that feels 30% like a CA Pinot (In a good way if you’ll allow). If it was $15 a bottle I’d buy a case. — 4 months ago

Light and acidic, bright but not too fruity. A little bit of bret. 12%. We served slightly cooled, with halibut and black truffle pasta... was a perfect pairing. I would say it is a little overpriced but a nice, simple, elegant wine. — 9 months ago

In my opinion occhipinti’s best and one of the best skin contact wines I’ve had. Beautifully floral, think earl grey... always better on the second glass and not over-chilled. Lovely orange zest and apricot finish. Maybe not for the VA and Brett loving goofball natural wine fanatics but definitely something interesting for someone with a more classic palette who craves complexity and subtlety. — a year ago

Lovely balanced easy to drink yet complex gamay. Intense fruit (dark cherry jam) maybe something floral too. — 4 months ago

Very light and dry. The only other schioppettino I’ve had is from the horrible Bressan; in comparison this one is almost uneventful. A little herby but none of that wonderful weird patchouli you get in the Bressan... maybe just a tiny bit if you really search for it. — 6 months ago

One of two remaining bottles of Bressan that will be my last, as I’ve just learned of his fascist and racist tendencies. While it’s hard for this brown guy to enjoy a wine made by a vehement racist, I’ll try to be fair: an elegant skin contact wine, truly deep orange color, but not as complex as his reds. It does open up and reveal more over time and at the right temperature. Needless to say I won’t be supporting this producer again. — 10 months ago

So tightly wound, drinks more like a langhe Nebbiolo than a burgundy. Light, but tannic and tart. Even on the second day didn’t really open up much. It’s a lower priced burgundy but maybe it’s worth spending more, or alternatively spending less for a good langhe... — 5 months ago

A beautiful skin contact white, tannic and even a bit bitter. Over time gets more going on... preserved lemon etc. Don’t drink it too cold. — 10 months ago

Beautiful expression of Sangiovese... I’ll take this over most Tuscans if the same price point. A clean natural wine at a great value. — 10 months ago

I hate to love trendy wines like this but honestly it’s very good. Maybe a little overpriced but it’s worth trying a bottle. A light red with solid tannins and a very smoky, tar like finish that doesn’t overpower the fruit. I would drink at slightly cooler than cellar temp but not chilled as you will be missing out on the clove and spice. — a year ago
