This is a chianti classico on his way to perfection. Very elegant, very noble. A nose and a palate are full of a plum. And the nose offers also a sweet chocolate. But then there is: a pepper. The third nose gives a final answer: it's a green pepper. Very refreshing final. — 7 years ago
Dinner with my wife and mum before seeing Don Giovanni at the Met.
Neutral nose is paired with a rather tart palate. Not much mousse to talk about, either. Not quite my style, — 7 years ago

Lots of history to this varietal from this place. It’s not a very common grape. And it’s name checked in the Shakespeare opera ‘Don Giovanni’. Says so on the label. Dark colored grape makes a dark colored wine. Almost black. It’s supposed to smell like violets according to my research. Not sure I know the smell of violets enough to place that. I’d say berry cobbler. And maybe blood orange. Mushrooms? Flavors are dry, simple and elegant. Reminds me of some good Southern Italian stuff I’ve had. Plenty tart. Lower alcohol at 12.5%. This is interesting and strange stuff. Thanks Grocery Outlet for bringing stuff like this to the masses. — 4 years ago

Slight petrol on very dry switchgrass. Birchbark, paper myrtle, matchstick. Dried lemon, red apple and clove, orange pith, burnt kettle aromatics. Medium mouthfeel with lemon charge, pencil wood, madeleine, sweet grapefruit, cocktail lime and a slight persimmon and papaya reversal. Simultaneously crisp and heavy, but always lighter in retrospect. A genuine dichotomy. #cortona #toscana #italianwhite #sauvignonblancday #whitewinereset #whiteleather #bianco #donotrepeatthishashtagunlessyouwantvampirecurses #blanca #blanco — 9 years ago
This is definitely a Superiore! Riper fruit with 13% alcohol. Smells exactly like a delicious red apple... Like the one you would use for caramel apple of Halloween. Incredible! — 11 years ago
