2017, whew buddy this knocked our socks right off — 6 months ago
Needs a little bit of air. Red fruit that at first seems over extracted and then mellows a bit to reveal some mushroom earthy notes — 3 months ago
Delicious. Low tannins, sweet, fruity, smooth. Blueberry, blackberry, plum jam. — 5 months ago
Opened and decanted 2.5 hours in advance of our inaugural Aglianco Osso Buco wine dinner here at the Gotham
Facing off against a range of Aglianco from Unti in Sonoma, Leonetti in WA and Galardi 2007 in Campania
The 2010 Galardi was the most dense and as with the 2007, the fruit was minimal. Instead the flavor profile is herbs, green olives and incredible savory notes. It worked incredibly well with the osso buco and needed the richness to shine. This wine still had a bit of hard edges and could use more bottle age IMO — 7 months ago

The gorgeous, soaring nose of violets, Plum, deep blue fruit… Very intense and pure and lifted with floral notes, and a vibrant core of savory and detailed fruit. Still young, but great quality. — 5 days ago
