Reddish in color with a purplish hue.

Elegant nose and full bodied with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity and mouthfeel.

Showing raspberries, cherries, black plums, black currants, coffee, light oak and spices.

Medium finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is an elegant and very pleasant Nebbiolo from Piedmont.

Good right out of the bottle and better with airtime.

Still young and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 years.

Easy drinking and good by itself as a sipping wine.

100% Nebbiolo grapes were aged in used American and French oak barrels for 12 months.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

This 100% Viognier is a star bright green gold. Old bananas and fresh white flowers on the abundant nose. Full bodied complex palate yields all sorts of stuff: banana, magnolia petal, underripe and overripe tropical fruits, white pepper, white peach, and on and on. Finish is medium long and doesn’t fade into that darkness typical of many white Rhône varieties. Medium minus acidity, of course. This is classic Viognier. Very varietally typical in every way. Enjoy on its own or with rich “white wine” dishes , especially cream sauces or roasts poultry. Drink now through 2022. — 6 years ago

First - I love the artwork

On opening - lovely aroma of dark fruit tobacco undergrowth.

When lasted 3.5 years ago it took a day to open. Now the huge tannins blew off in about 2 hours. - then hit the sweet spot - lovely aroma including earthiness - cherry and other dark fruit on the palate with mouthwatering acidity. Nice balance of mossy earthiness, mineral, truffle and other elegant mature flavors that are meant to be savored. The tannins are still present but build to a long finish and now enhance regather than distract from the experience. — 2 years ago

Ruby with a bouquet of dark fruit, spices, leather and licorice. On the palate flavors of black cherry and prune with notes of pepper, smoky tobacco, vanilla and cacao. Long finish, nice balance with fine soft tannins ending with earthy sweet notes. Good now! — 2 years ago

Full palate explosion on opening - well balanced with long dry finish. After 2 hours medium bodied with balanced but intense tannins and smoky leathery dark berries. Perfect for a dark wood room with a fireplace burning while sitting in a plush leather chair. — 6 years ago

"Odedi"

9.1

Reddish in color with a brick hue.

Pretty nose of light wild flowers with red fruits, light oak and licorice.

Full-bodied with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with cherries, plums, currants, light oak, spices, peppercorn, dark chocolates, light earth, herbs and tobacco leaf.

Tangy finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.

This young Single Vineyard Barolo is starting to drink nicely now, but needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Elegant and robust at the same time.

Good right out of the bottle, and better with airtime.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years. A good quality wine with potential to become a 94+ point wine.

100% Nebbiolo grapes were aged for 24 months in large French oak barrels.

Pale lemon in color.

Aromatic nose of citrus, lemons, green apples, light yeast and minerals.

Medium plus in body with medium sized bubbles and medium plus acidity.

Dry on the palate with mild complexity.

Showing limes, grapefruits, green apples, yeast, herbs and minerals.

Tangy finish with limes and light herbs.

This is an easy drinking and engaging sparkling wine from Piedmont.

A good quality sparkling wine that drinks very nicely by itself. Will pair nicely with seafood as well.

Would be nice to revisit this 4 year old in 3 years.

A blend of 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay. Aged for 36 months on its lees. Made in the Traditional Method.

Dark ruby with light ruby highlights. Inviting nose and medium full palate of red berries, juicy blueberry, and ripe blackberry. Bright acidity and medium tannins mark this as a classic Piemonte red for hearty Mediterranean fare. I'm having short rib and butternut squash risotto which fits perfectly. Drink now through 2028. — 4 years ago

My fondness for Silla Sebaste grows with each glass. This is my first Bussia from this producer and it’s approachable on opening and opens up even more over several hours. Pronounced floral and cherry nose. Mouth watering cherry and other dark fruits, spices, and add a little smoke and leather from front to mid palate. The moderate lingering tannins start to take over late palate and dry the mouth through the finish. Wonderful experience with a lot going on. — 5 years ago

Pale lemon-hued. Aromas and flavors of almond, blossom, honey, lime, and pineapple. Medium body and medium-plus acidity. Lovely floral notes on the nose; while balanced and textured on the mouthfeel and a lingering finish of citrus. — 6 years ago

A bit of an argument between table mates as to whether this was corked. One adamant yes, the other no. Not obvious to me, but a hint of something on the nose to lead in that direction. Flavors were not muted and palate/profile seemed right otherwise and I enjoyed this overall. — 9 years ago
