Great value! Not as strong as the 2010 but an incredible value nonetheless! Bold and juicy Smoky leather, red cherry, plum and cassis. 3.8 / 8.86 — 2 months ago
Perfect Alsatian Gewurtz. Drinking 2013 in 2022, at its peak. Aromas of lychee, candied pinneapple, apricot, with a subtle tropical spritzyness almost evervescently revealing notes of peach and mango. Mouth feel is spot on perfect. Robustly letter the honeyed residual sugars and tasty melon citrus notes shine. This is everything I love about wine and one of my favorite grapes. — 4 months ago
2016 drinking in Venice in 2022. A bit early but we let this sit...and wow, it will open up a new world of cherry fruit happiness. Oak silky leather with a touch of earthy smoke. If enjoyed too soon it will come off a bit thin, so wait. — 6 days ago
We just enjoyed this serious quality Greek red blend with Lamb in Athens. Solid aging potential, but drinking really nicely right now. Strong notes of cherry and chocolatey vanilla complement the cassis finish. 🇬🇷 🍒 🍇 🍶 — 3 months ago

Premier Cru birthday Champs! Really enjoyed this balanced Champagne. First saw colorful and funky toasty brioche notes followed by yellow apple and dry minerals & pear. Bold and lots of expression. — 9 months ago
Great value. Way underrated. Notes of vanilla, red fruits, plum....etc. Lots of potential revealed after aging for 8 years and decanting for 1+ hr — 2 months ago
This 2017 Tenuta Cucco, Barolo was a bit young and fresh at first but once it opened up a bit the wine revealed fresh cherry and oaky leather and hints of raspberry. Overall a strong showing for this 2017 nonetheless. — 3 months ago
