Nice with Pat’s lasagna ($18). Also enjoyed with lamb stuffed squash. Had again (March 2024) with pork tenderloin. Delicious Sangiovese. — 7 months ago

German chocolate cake and bacon fat, brooding black cherry and reishi mushroom. Smoky tallow, madura leaf, blackberries, black currant, black roses and African violets, yellowing bamboo and plums for leagues. Black cherry carries the heavy mouthfeel up and over the palate with an overt lard and tallow signature. Depth and complexity ensue. This is rich and refined, well-integrated in terms of tannin and perfectly balanced; a glorious expression of Montalchino! This is rarefied quality and reins in its fruit with a graphite mesh that supports the aforementioned. Incredible.

A lovely take on Sangiovese. Nose is a bit closed at this early stage. Palate also has a bit to go but showing beautifully with a decant. It’s really quite a stunning mineral-cherry-floral accord wrapped in grippy tannins. Tar, camphor. Terrific balance and density. Beautiful work. 😍 @Lyle Fass — 3 years ago
