Cascina Nuova Barolo Nebbiolo 2015

Stellar Barolo. Definitely of the new school, lighter color, lightly structured, but radiant fruit in a refined style. Decanted 2hrs. Perfect pairing for veal/osso buco, maybe less so for a roast. Some debate whether more age would refine the fruit further or cause it to dissipate. No idea but have two more so can experiment! Made me want to get on an overnight to Piedmont tonight. — 2 months ago

Scarlett Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

9.4

An experiment. So consistently strong, and clearly has longevity. No rush to consume these…
So decadent, going close to the explosive line, but doesn’t cross it. Blueberries and rich black fruits mesh with sandalwood and brown sugar. Weighty on the mid palate with relaxed acidity. This is epic. Still in its prime so consume now.

Experiment R9.8 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2018

I’m not loving this. Some of the flavors are good but they don’t feel melded together. It has to be the Petit Verdot that’s throwing me off. — 5 months ago

@Antonio Galloni Long time user of Delectable and would really like to see more people coming back to it. Any chance you will be asking the base for ideas on how to make it better going into the new year? I would love an extract so I could see how I’ve rated bottles over time.

Experiment C4.6 Clone 4 Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2016

Dark ruby. Red fruit nose. Medium bodied. Silky soft tannins even right out of the bottle. Fruit forward, lots of oak, earthy, mushroom, hint of dark chocolate on the finish. Medium finish. Drinking well now. — 2 years ago

Needed a few more years. Opened up to an unusually layered wine with a complex nose of berry fruits, chocolate, plum, floral and metal notes. Crisp but full on the palate. Really well made. — 3 months ago

Figgins

Walla Walla Valley Riesling 2021

We had a busy weekend with some friends going through a few bottles. We started with the nice invigorating Riesling from Figgins. Not like the 2020 however. we paired it with some different light cheeses like Brie, Muenster cheese, an apricot flavored cheese and a garlic flavored curd cheese. They all brought different flavors out of the wine. Fun experiment. Interestingly, one of the bottles was carbonated 🤔, the yeast must have still been active. — 2 years ago
