Belatedly and quietly. OK, good, but not quite together or nor aged enough. — 2 months ago

Milla Cala Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2019

9.1

Lovely Cab leading blend with a healthy dose of Carménère. Gentle nose of ripe plum, black currant, dark chocolate, autumn leaves, and touch of green pepper. Eloquent medium body with round acidity and fine grained tannins.
Ready to drink, but should benefit from 5 years or so bottle age.

Grotte di Sole Red Blend

Fruit forward. Bags of cherries and blackberries. Wonderful wine that is easy to drink. Little acidity. This wine knocks it out of the park (as the Americans say). — a year ago

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2015

Dinner party so no formal notes. Entering its prime drinkability window. Really nice balance and freshness to go along with the ‘15 depth. — 4 months ago

Monte Maletto

Carema Sole e Roccia Nebbiolo

This can easily go up in score, pretty young but did great over 5 days tapped twice with a coravjn and then cork pull the last day.

Outside of the OG Ferrando, and there is not much else bottled here outside of them and Produttori, outstanding first try of this one.

Bricco al Sole

Montepulciano d'Abruzzo

Dark ruby core with a garnet rim. The nose is full of aromas of dried cherry, violets, rose petals and leather. Dark cherry, cranberry and raspberry fruit flavors. Hint of black pepper on the short finish. Medium bodied with light tannins and mouth watering acidity. No evidence of oak aging. Basic “pizza wine,” but quite gulpable. Excellent QPR. — 3 months ago

La Cala Vermentino di Sardegna 2022

Delicious Vermentino. Crisp and fruity and summery and good with seafood. The label claims it benefits from the “maestrale” (mistral winds). Glad someone is enjoying that wind! — 9 months ago

Cala de' Poeti

Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 2020

More than just a pretty label. Very good value wine for everyday use. Agree with comment from earlier vintage. Describing day 2 after opening. Starts sweet, then spicy, then finishes with a musky undergrowth. Somewhat dense with subtle tannins. Fruit is a huckleberry/fig melange. Overall unique and interesting. — 2 years ago
