Gavi del Comune di Gavi Cortese 2024

Down the middle gavi. If you like most gavis for their crisp expression as we do this will not disappoint. Certainly not bad for the price. — 8 days ago

Serralunga d'Alba Barolo Nebbiolo 2018

Tame is the right word. This Barolo is moving out of its wild youth, but can still age some. Soft fruit and new leather, a little sage. Tannins are mellow, decanted for 2 hours. Paired with pork medallions in a basil cream sauce. Good pairing.

I usually go 10 years minimum but I was in the mood for Barolo and this one was a bargain. Let it breathe for awhile and you can see a bit into the future 😀 @Tegan Marriott

Totally agree with you on the timing with barolos. I think I'll open a langhe nebbiolo or one from alto piedmont before baby killing! Cheers to you!

Barolo Nebbiolo 2021

Approachable after 1 hr decant. Cherry-cranberry fruit, hints of black, leathery palate. A little short and it’s not the most complex. But very good now, and for a Barolo you can buy at Costco and open that night, it’s terrific — a month ago
