Amazing yet currently different presentation than the ‘95 Intestieti Riserva ~ showing a much brighter pop of candied fruits! — 2 days ago

The 2020 is drinking lovely. Aroma of licorice, dark fruit , slate, grapefruit on palate firm tanins , enjoyable but will age well. — 3 months ago

Drinking while decorating for Christmas (not hosting Thanksgiving this year Nov 2023), aged perfectly. Decanted for about 30 minutes, beautifully aged barolo with rose petal and prune aromas. More prune flavors along with tar and blackberry. No rush to drink! Highly recommend! — 5 months ago

The 2013 Amarone della Valpolicella Case Vecie blossoms in the glass with a spicy blend of crushed cherries and blackberries, complemented by violet pastille and hints of sweet smoke. This is cool-toned and sleek with silky textures and admirable weight, yet all is kept perfectly in balance by a core of brisk acidity. Depths of tart wild berry fruit saturate while bitter dark chocolate and inner rose tones swirl throughout. The 2013 leaves the palate reeling with tension as crunchy tannins take hold and notes of licorice and orange slowly fade. This is built for the cellar and is slowly maturing in bottle.

Like the sour mouth watering effect of the wine on the palate. Already my last bottle of the case but this still has years of runway ahead. — 5 months ago

Worth a check in at 10 years. Always an outstanding nose. Needed hours of air and still pretty shy, fruit in particular is closed. Paired with NY strip tonight. Have half a case left of this vintage and will check in again in a couple years. — 2 months ago

Happy Valentine’s Day! Continuing our tradition of pulling one of these each year - 11 down, only 1 more to go after this! Reminder that we need to choose a new case of something soon.

This is excellent as always but I’m not sure hits quite the same high note as last year’s bottle. Fine mousse, nose a bit more restrained. Palate is explosive and so deep with wonderful candied caramelized lemon peel. Wonderful pairing with carbonara! — 2 months ago

Remarkable syrah with tons of cocoa and cherries. Also some typical (italian?) acidity.
Good effort. — 8 months ago
