I adore this woman maker in the Dolomites, but my friends felt this white blend too suave for the setting (San Juan, PR) — 16 days ago

Quite closed in the beginning. Needed quite some time to reveal itself. I think that it will still need some additional cellaring — 5 months ago

I preferred this base cuvee over the Contrada. — 6 months ago

Too much nature for me. I think this can improve with more bottle age but today not my cup of tea — 23 days ago

Opened just prior to service and poured into a decanter. This is the second time I have had the opportunity to enjoy the 1967 Riserva although, the previous bottle was a more recent library release from the Borgogno cellars. This was a period release and yet, the experience was similar.

The 1967 Riserva pours a deep garnet color with a transparent core moving towards a slightly orange rim. Medium viscosity with no staining of the tears and some slight signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous but showing much more power than the ‘67 Abbazia SS Annunziata we drank on the same evening. Again, there is a lovely mix of ripe and desiccated red and dark fruits with forest floor, porcini, dried roses, tar, some tobacco, dried herbs, dusty earth and exotic spices. On the palate, the wine is dry; medium+ tannins and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long a savory. My previous notes suggested to drink now and while I still hold fast to that statement, twice in the span of 18mos with two separate bottlings encourages me to be a bit more bullish and suggest this has many years, perhaps decades left in the tank. — 3 months ago

Check out the color on the skin contact PG from the dolomites (right near where my dad grew up in northern Italy. I love Italian whites from this region and this “rosé” is exceptional. 12.5% abv. $22 — 6 months ago

Liked the 2013 considerably more than the 2015. Still a good wine but not as big as I wanted. Probably be past prime next year. — 2 months ago

Nice flowery and fruity nose. I think I will keep my other bottles a few more years to see if and how it can develop further.
The acidity is at a nice very old balsamic level. — 4 months ago

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. — 6 months ago
