Decanted for 3 hours. Opens with ripe blackberries and black cherries accented by forest floor and some cocoa, hint of floral notes. Has held onto its acidity. Tannins softened and nicely integrated. Beautifully structured. Long fruit finish. Outstanding. — 4 years ago

Back label on this 2021 bottling identifies Saint Laurent as the varietal and claims "the wine is part of the project 'Primi Vini' for grapes that ripen early, enabling the wine to be put on the market earlier. I don't know if this means it is a Nouveau style/carbonic maceration or just refers to the precociousness of the variety.
Inky purple. Boisterously fruity nose with a crushable balance that invites another sip. YUM. — a year ago

A mimma piace questo Pinot Griggio da Alto Adige. E’ facile per bere. Forse e’ buono mercato anche. Era buono con il hot pot coreano. — 5 years ago
Pinot Nero bevuto a Natale a casa di papà, comprato da loro sul lago di Caldaro, eccezionale — a year ago
This is in an incredible spot right now. Great texture and structure. This screams for food. Killer with kimchi fried rice. — 3 years ago
Fall is here and it’s the season I love to drink port. Dow, producing Ports for over 2 centuries. One of the first to establish its own vineyards, acquiring Senhora da Ribeira, in the remote Upper Douro, in 1890 & Bomfim, in the heart of Alto Douro, in 1896. Aromas of ripe fruits, fragrant spices and sweet notes. On the palate flavors of candied apple and jammy blackberries with cacao and honey. Firm dusty tannins, good balance, long finish. Perfect now. Tasting Sample. — 3 years ago
