Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2010

We had the 2010 Vintage on 10/12/24. This Old World, medium bodied wine has all the ingredients for a real good Brunello. There are tastes of raspberry, strawberry, leather and spice. A nice finish. A reasonably priced wine from an excellent Vintage — 14 days ago

La Palazzetta (Flavio Fanti)

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2019

Good value. Nose on opening with prominent rose petals cherry and old leather furniture. Tannins prominent on opening. After 2+ hours of slow ox much more approachable. Palate with candied cherries, anise, holiday spice, leather and almonds. Lingering very dry leather and tobacco finish. One drawback is notable alcohol presence the first couple hours. More time in cellar needed before opening next bottle? — 2 months ago

Agricola Punica

Barrua Isola dei Nuraghi Carignane 2019

Blend of mostly Carignano with Cab Sauvignon and Merlot, deep Ruby with aromas of ripe red fruits, floral and herb spice. On the palate flavors of ripe berries and currants, licorice, herb, cedar, cacao and black pepper. Firm tannins, long finish ending with fruit, herb and cedar spice. Drinking well now. — 3 months ago

Vigna d'Alceo Toscana Cabernet Sauvignon Petit Verdot Blend 2012

Love this type of wine. Nuanced and elegant, every sip revealing something new while the wine evolves in the glass. Wine making at its best. — a month ago

Cá dei Zago

Prosecco col Fondo 2022

Unusual as it has way more earth than usual for a Prosecco. Very interesting as it’s not just mass produced fizz. Do not waste by adding OJ — a month ago

Riserva Bossona Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Sangiovese 2017

Pretty color of dark ruby with a wide reddish rim.

Nice nose of currants, plums, cooked cherries, espresso, vanilla, licorice, light oak, spices, peppercorn, dark chocolates and earth.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, tobacco, oak, earth herbs, spices, tobacco leaf, dark chocolates and espresso.

Long finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a delicious Sangiovese from Montepulciano. Fruity with nice complexity and mouthfeel.

This Single Vineyard is rich, extracted and interesting.

Well balanced and good by itself as a sipping wine. The high alcohol is well integrated by now.

This 7 year old Sangiovese is drinking beautifully now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.

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

15.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$75.
