San Valentino Sangiovese Blend

Let her open up a bit. Rustic and medium bodied, earthy, just like a Umbria wine should taste — a month ago

Duarte Vineyard Zinfandel 2017

Somewhat of a dessert wine and post dinner vino. This wine held up with great fruit and complexity. Really nice follow on to 25 year old CdP and high end champagne. Held its own with good concentration and depth. — 20 days ago

San Andreas Fault Pinot Noir 2014

Lyle Fass
9.2

It’s got that CA profile. Dusty earth and tooti frooti but also has some good spice. But yea, that CA profile. Elegant, sweet and balanced. Not big but small and pure. Nice. — 7 days ago

Arboreus Umbria IGT Trebbiano 2015

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple hours. The 2015 pours a deep amber color with a translucent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with fascinating notes of ripe orchard fruit: apricots, peach, and orange pith; along with pu'er tea, dead flowers, nuts, and dry earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with low tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and there is a slightly waxy texture. This is a wine that gives you that sort of, “open your head, lift out brain, spin it around, and reinsert” sort of experience. Special. Drink now through 2030+. Bottle No. 03507/11970 — a month ago

Guidalberto Toscana Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2022

Impressive nose but lacking a bit of body at the moment. Too young and will no doubt improve in the coming 5 years. — a month ago

Wow! Aged a bit too long, but still a pleasure to drink. Go for it! — 21 days ago

Rosso de Véo Umbria Rosso Sagrantino 2017

Lighter than the pagliaro, and not as good but still very good. — 3 months ago
