Cherry and dark fleshy fruit is popping here. Sumptuous wine. Lots of heft depth and length. I drank this a bit young and it will clearly be better in the future but it’s still definitely fantastic now. — 22 days ago

Another excellent vintage of this Rosso di Montalcino. Bright ruby color. Aromas of red and black plums, crushed stone, blackberries and balsamic vinegar. Same fruits on the palate (along with black cherry) with a nice hint of spice on the very long finish. Well balanced with vibrant acidity. Ripe tannins. Bold, but not “over the top.” Excellent wine. Thanks for opening this favorite of mine, Keith S! — 22 days ago

At dinner following our son’s wedding. No notes but I do recall this as being excellent as it always is. Obviously too young but the class was there and the table loved it. — a month ago
