90E at Le Piemontesine, Igliano, Italy, with the famous five. Very French. Chef Jerome’s favourite Barolo, Charlotte thinks of it as like a cote du rhone. Luis’s favourite so far. — 25 days ago

By far my favorite Valpolicella. See previous reviews. The downside is it used to be affordable easy. Now it’s close to $60 a btl.
Earth, smoke, forest,Black tea,tarry yet light ( ish). As far as i remember, made from leased vines 500 M above lake Garda.At least the first vintage. Aged in 2nd pass Amarone Botti.All in all, a highly idiosyncratic winemaker with some hits across the board and a meh here and there. I return to this particular wine however to fill my Valpolicella jones.

Probably approaching or at its peak, an inexpensive Riserva that paired nicely with mushroom ravioli with an olio and sun dried tomato sauce. — 6 months ago

Young, great nose but a bit closed on opening. Wine showed better after an hour. Quite feminine and elegant. Great future lies ahead. — 19 days ago

Dust, tar, dark cherry, white pepper, and anise on the nose. The same flavors come through on the palate with balsamic and fresh mushrooms emerging as well. Smooth and lush on the palate, and the tannins and acidity are beautifully balanced. Persistent finish but a little drying on the palate. Overall a pleasure to drink. I bet this will be great after a few years when those tertiary flavors are more developed. — 3 months ago

Garner coloration. Some translucency. On the nose, cherry, strawberry, florals, and hints of minerals. Right out of the bottle, fruity and flowery. On the palate, cherry, cranberry, forest floor, strong tannins. — 6 months ago

We had the 2012 vintage on 10/27-28/26. Light garnet in color. Got better after 90 minutes of air. Candied cherries and leather on the bouquet. Raspberry, red cherry, kirsch, and leather on the palate. Medium bodied. Old World. Nice finish. — 2 days ago

Nice Barbaresco. Deep and brooding, just starting to become balsamic. Nose is powerfully woody and crisp. A classic and excellent example. — a month ago

From magnum. Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 2021 pours a deep garnet color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the make, the wine is developing with notes of cherry, cranberry, pomegranate, red flowers, licorice and a mix of cool and warm spices. On the palate the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Well made. Drink now through 2036. — 6 months ago
