10 euros by the glass at Osteria Ì Canto Ghibellino,Empoli, with Curly. Sensational value. Just opened, probably doing an injustice. — 3 days ago
Strong floral & spice on the nose when first opened. After 20 minutes decanted, delicate layers of cherry & blueberry fruit on the palate with light spice… and a very nice long finish. Soft tannins are pronounced.
This wine has not peaked. I will try it again in a couple of years. But it is delightful right now! — 25 days ago

Fascinating to have a wine older than me. Smell was raisins - reminded me of amarone — 4 months ago
I’m surprised by how well this 2020 bottling showed.
Captivating aromas of sour cherry, plum, cedar, dried herbs and mushroom, and a touch of tobacco. The palate is quite concentrated and powerful yet composed and elegant. Fresh acidity and firm yet fine grained tannins. Should age beautifully. — 14 days ago

Special evening with friends. Well balanced smooth finish — a month ago
Medium ruby color with a slight orange rim. Aromas of red fruit, leather, forest floor, orange zest and smokey oak. Flavors of red and black cherries and plums, tobacco, porcini mushrooms, black licorice, black olives and earthy spices. Long and expressive finish. Bold acidity and chewy tannins. Full bodied and incredibly well balanced. So complex and concentrated. Thanks to Petey and Kase for this Welcome to Cape May 2026 Vacation wine! — 22 days ago
Great wine! — 6 days ago
Traditional Sangiovese from a warm vintage — ripe but structured. Sour cherry, dried herbs, leather, balsamic, fine-grained tannin, bright acidity holding it all together. Entering its window now; the fruit has integrated and the tertiary notes are emerging. Built to drink through 2030+ but already showing well. — a month ago

Wow. This was so good. Forgot what a fantastic Brunello can be. Took about an hour to open up. Beautiful nose and so much nuance — 19 hours ago
