Lovely soft expression of Sauv Blanc. New small producer in Napa. — 2 years ago
Albanella is the main variety. Autoctone grape from Marche. Very much Muscadet style. Perfect with oysters, raw mussles and crustaceous. I’d love to taste this wine in a few years to see its development potential. — 2 years ago
What a surprise! An unexpected pinot noir from another unexpected location (Marche, Italy). Better than a classic Alto Adige Pinot and with great potential, like a burgundy! And specially..just 24€ !!! Grab one if you can!!! — 2 years ago
TSWC. Slight saltiness upfront, citrus and apple burst and a refreshing finish. A very enjoyable drinking wine. — 3 years ago

土壌は石灰質がベースのようだが、海に近いからか、キャンティクラシコに比べると柔かさが際立つ。
とは言え、ボルゲリのような豊満なイメージはなく、あくまでも柔か。
開いてくるとバルサミコやレーズンの要素が出てくるが、その要素も柔らかなので、万人受けしそう。 — 9 months ago
Spiced meaty notes on the nose upon first opening, like stewed red peppers and beef. Elves into juicier riper red fruit notes as it breathes. Cooked plums and cherries. Bright vibrant young meaty cherry and blueberry fruits jump onto the palate with kalamata olive undertones and plentiful acid. Balanced with a body and mid palate that is complimented by both introductory and finishing flavors and sensations. — 2 years ago

Absolutely delicious. The 27% Zin makes itself noticed on the nose, which has the telltale brambly blackberry competing with the deep red berries of the Carignane. And there’s a bit of the signature Ridge American oak adding a vanilla/smoky note on top of a little gravel. Texturally soft and mouthfilling, it’s ripe but in beautiful balance. Tangy acids from the Carignane. A bit of tannin, but it’s very soft. I don’t see this as a long ager, but really nice now. The finish is a little short, but that’s common in my view with Carignane, which tend to give a significant initial whack of flavor and then dissipates quickly. — 6 months ago
