9.1

This is a very concentrated wine with lots of black fruit and spices. The palate is complex and layered. The blend of Merlot and Cabernet carries the day.The. Petit verdot provides substantial color making this wine opaque. — 4 days ago

8.8

This is an easy drinking Spanish wine with cherry and strawberry notes. Tannins are resolved so there is little acid to balance the sweet fruit. There is some mineral notes in the finish. — 3 months ago

8.8

This is a Tuscan blend of Sangiovese. Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine opened over time giving each grape a place at the tasting table. Sangiovese provides red fruit and herbaceous notes, Merlot gives some plum sweetness and the Cab gives structure and tannin. Finish is short but this complements tomato based sauces very well. — 5 months ago

This is a bigger wine than I expected. Good fruit forward flavors with Cabernet and Shiraz flavors and aroma noticeable. Good structure and ready to drink at 5 years from vintage. — 4 days ago

This is an experiment with Barbera, usually a lighter bodied wine of Northern Italy. The result, after a secondary fermentation that gives a raisin impression is pleasant to me but probably not to everyone. — a month ago

This is a white wine with a meaty taste. Clean and clear it mimics red Malbec without significant tannin. It was a pleasant sipper which complemented a savory chicken dish beautifully. The finish was medium. — 5 months ago

9.1

This is what wine from Puglia can be at its best. This is a fuller bodied wine with plum and blackberry notes. Everything meshes together well. The finish is sufficient but not long. — 13 days ago
