Flaccianello della Pieve Colli Toscana Centrale Sangiovese

20 years in the making…. Blackberries, spicy cedar, fig, cigar, truffles and old leather. Dark ruby, medium to heavy bodied, strong tannins, high acidity that pairs well with a smoky, fatty steak. Love it! — 7 days ago

Marchesi Mazzei

Fonterutoli Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2009

Tasty, but I would like it more if it didn’t have Cabernet Sauvignon in it and if they used less oak. Pretty rich and ripe. I prefer Felsina, Fontodi, Monsanto, Castell’in Villa, Rampolla, Isole e Olena and San Giusto a Rentennano to this! — 8 years ago

Running low on Cimarossa at home, I need to reload!

2007 Cimarossa 'Rian Vineyard' Cabernet Sauvignon

The next time you go to Napa you should take a ride up to the top of Howell Mountain to see Dino and make sure you also try the best Nebbiolo outside of Italy!
#cimarossa

A deep ruby red core of color, the nose is brooding and fresh with blue and black fruits, a streak of pepper and mint, well integrated oak and ripe, firm tannin. A long and pure finish, a great Cabernet.

Terrific but not for the faint of heart. A goliath of a wine. Black cherries, plums, smoked meat, caramelized onions. — 9 years ago

Filetta di Lamole Chianti Classico Sangiovese 2017

Dry with pronounces tannins. Two hours after decanting, it emergences much smoother and rather nice to drink now. Not quite the standard Fontodi CC, but a very enjoyable wine on its own. — 5 years ago

Not your typical Rosé. Darker in color. The wine has nice acidity and cherry and plum notes. This is a great wine to drink on a hot summer day. — 8 years ago

Sinatra at Winn Encore,

Mystery why no one so fare rated this wine. Fabulous, full bodied but dry. Legs like only ZZ Top can sing about.
