This is weird, but if you read NK Jemisen’s Broken Earth series, and you think about the all-powerful onyx obelisk—that’s what it feels like I’m drinking. Overwhelming in every way—Big, bold, ripe, boozy. But balanced and smooth and soft like velvet glove. I just fall deep into the glass and wanna stay there. The dark, juicy fruit — a blackberry/blueberry cobbler comes to mind—lingers forever. — 4 years ago
Yum! Especially with Italian food. — 12 years ago
I cooked at home in Brooklyn, but traveled to the Amalfi Coast. Spaghetti with yellow tomato, bottarga and colatura di alici. This was the closest pairing I had on hand - a very dry red from Campania. A little too tight, even with some air. Was hoping for more red fruit and sweetness to show through, but still quite good! Also, improved on day 2. — 2 years ago
Super jammy, and with much more subtle salinity than most Valle de Guadalupe wines. — 8 years ago

Drinking this in Molise right now with our sommelier Carlo Pagano. Dark ruby color with orange edge. Very complex noose, intense sensation of black pepper, black fruit and prune. Carob. Coffee. Structure. Density. Soft Tannin. Subtle layer of cloves and nutmeg. Orange skin aromas. Sweet tobacco aroma, too. Delicious. — 9 years ago

A little lighter and more apple than I'm used to with Falanghina. Let it warm up to get more minerality — 2 years ago
