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. — 6 years ago
Aboard JG One PHL bound. Super pleasant and delightful to drink. Great starter, without food. Courtesy of Dino. — 8 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. — 10 years ago
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! — a month 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!

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. — 10 years ago
Great pairing with Sunday gravy, candlelight and Dino Crocetti. We’ll put this one into the regular winter rotation. Salud! — 6 years ago

Terrific but not for the faint of heart. A goliath of a wine. Black cherries, plums, smoked meat, caramelized onions. — 9 years ago
Quite nice; flavour able and smooth. Will buy again. — 10 years ago
