Case Basse di Gianfranco Soldera
Riserva Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2004
An outstanding bottle similar to the previous times I have had it. 3 hour slow ox and then decanted at dinner. Went brilliantly with white truffles! Had the Caprili with the veal and the body may have suited the veal but the Soldera was the WOTN — 3 months ago

pear, citrus, must. Dare I say a little peppery? Very full bodied. Probably would have been better 6 months ago when I bought it. Oops. — a month ago

Vigneti Massa
Monleale Colli Tortonesi Barbera 2015
Peppery plum is really shining through on this one. Red licorice and dried spice accents. Tannic grape skin gives it some grip. Long raisin finish. Like the Sun-Maid boxes I ate as a kid. A little sweet for me, but still good quality. Also added some to the passata I’m making from heirloom tomatoes, and it’s quite nice. — 4 months ago
Sipping Fine Wine
Straw lemon color with aromas of stone fruits, citrus and floral notes, made with the Cortese grape. On the palate flavors of pear, green apple and lemon citrus with lively acidity and blossom notes. Medium savory finish ending with citrus and floral mineral character. — a month ago
