Grippy, tea-like orange, kinda like a flat Arnold Palmer or something. “Forty year old vines planted over sandy, alluvial soils in Ammerschwihr. The fruit was fermented as whole bunches for a fortnight before being pressed off to vats for a short élevage.” — 4 years ago
Really good. Subtlety with plenty of flavor. A pleasure with red sauce — 5 years ago
Day 1: 8.5 Day 2: 9.0 Day 3: 9.2. Realllly needs time to open up at this young age, but really also rewards patience — a month ago

Thick, viscous, notes of honey and molasses. Heavy stuff.

Got on 2025 Italy trip — 9 months ago
We had the 2010 Vintage on 5/26-27/25. An excellent Brunello with tastes and scents of red cherry, leather, herbs and spice. Tannins all smoothed out. Medium bodied, Old World and well balanced. This got better with time. — 10 months ago

My choice for a dinner back home. Classic Sangiovese notes of red fruit like cherry and strawberry, and some leather and clove as well. The somm decanted it and had us wait 10 minutes before he poured the first glasses; tanins were soft but got even softer after 10 minutes decanted. Medium bodied, acidic, delicious. — 18 hours ago
