First sips were disappointing in the brevity of the hit on the palate. Gave it an hour and it lengthened beautifully. This wine has a ton of fruit (crushed sweet red berries), velvety tannins, and great structure. I would be fascinated to see what 10+ years does to it — 4 years ago
Really nice Refosco... almond, chocolate, cherry, earthy touches, this is a nice and welcoming nose. The palate is balanced, with a good acid drive, cherry and raspberry notes all along, some width, some very mild chocolatey touches, a bit of matter and a bit of tannic wall in the back end of the palate. The finish is surprisingly fresh, with good acid drive, some cherry, raspberry touches, a bit of a drying layer all over the finish. There is a tiny savoury note popping in the very end which makes this a cravable pour. I like that ! — 2 months ago
It's austere, but that's why you bought a taurasi. Dried flowers, boysenberries, raspberries. Almost like an amarone. Well made; I think average score a tad low. Better than the 2016. — 3 years ago
Comparing two top end Taurasi from Feudi di San Gregorio
The Fievo is lighter vs Rosamilia, with more baking spice and uplifting orange peel & orange blossom character to the ripe black cherry. The black volcanic minerality underneath is the same unmistakable Taurasi.
On the palate, slightly juicier with the fruit slightly lighter and the tannins less meaty.
Brilliant depth & length, though still a baby.
Drinking at this moment, I slighty prefer the Fievo, but both are brilliant wines. — 2 months ago

I finally had the chance to open a bottle of Lacryma Christi rosso this evening and was not disappointed. Fresh red berries on the nose, along with some herbs and spice. On the palate, dark fruit and vanilla notes, along with sweet tannins. So good! 85% Piedirosso, 15% Aglianico. 4/9/23. — 4 years ago
Very nice- had the 2019 bottle and it was about 10 bucks better than I paid for it that’s for sure. Delicious on its own but good with chick wand lighter fare too. — 4 years ago
