Great for its youthfulness. Would benefit from another year or two in the cellar. — 8 months ago
Great with pizza. So easy to drink and good fruit with acidity. — 3 years ago
Surprisingly bitter for a light “pinot-like” grape. Needs time to fully open (duh). — 5 years ago
Excellent moscato! Refreshing not too sweet. — 6 years ago
At twelve years old, this is holding up remarkably well, though there’s nothing delicate about it. It’s a huge, unapologetically ripe wine, overflowing with black cherry, blackberry compote, fig and dark plum, layered with cocoa, tobacco and savory spice. The sheer volume of fruit is almost overwhelming, yet the wine never feels tired or heavy. A firm spine of acidity runs straight through the middle, keeping everything fresh and surprisingly alive. Still massive, still intense, but now showing a hint of tertiary fun as well. — a month ago

Glass of wine at A Fiori. Very pleasant. I enjoyed this a lot. [Can’t stop thinking about it (10), definitely will look for it to buy again (9), nothing wrong with it would buy again (8), finished it but would not buy again (7), could not even finish it (6)] — 2 months ago
Wow. Big fan. Lots of bright red fruits like cherries and raspberries in the beginning. Great acidity. It is more earthy than I expected, but not unwelcome. I really appreciated the almost floral/rosy note that contrasts the brightness off the bat. Still pretty tannic, I imagine this would only get better with age. Tasted expensive. I have no clue how much it costs. Only improved with time/air as we ate dinner. Super cool to taste how it “opened up” and how it changed. — 8 months ago
Really good wine — 4 years ago
Very clean finish. Fruity a little minerals — 6 years ago
Fresh and lemony, with a crushed stone mineral weight. Really liked it, but there was a certain flatness that prevents me from wholeheartedly recommending it. But will absolutely buy again. — 6 years ago
