Tre Vigne Barbera d'Asti 2019

Delectable Wine
9.1

The 2019 Barbera d'Asti Tre Vigne is one of the hidden gems in Vietti’s stellar range. Crushed rocks, lavender, rose petal, mint, gravel and inky dark fruit all run through a racy, beautifully layered Barbera that will drink well right out of the gate. $20.00 (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, December 2021) — 4 years ago

Otin Fiorin Piè Rupestris-Nebioli Barolo Nebbiolo 2011

Sitting out by the pool eating a wood fired Sicilian style pizza & drinking one of my favorite Barolo producers. This was open & seemed ready to go that had a dried, sour cherry, with sweet savory spice, balsamic notes, forest floor, tar, dried herbs, leather & rose petal. In a word Excellent! — 5 years ago

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2013

The nose shows classic BdM aromas of dried cherry, rose petal, steeped black tea, tobacco, and a whisper of balsamic. Yet on the palate its tart acidity overwhelmed, and the nimble structure is more inline with CC than a BdM.

Not bad, but I certainly expected much more.

I would have had the same expectation for the producer and year.

Ciabot Mentin Barolo Nebbiolo 2007

This was singing tonight after giving it a little air as the change was dramatic where it started off with a ripeness & full body note that opened up to a more classically styled Barolo that was structured showing a perfumed nose of tart cherry, spice box with menthol, dried herbs, tar & rose petal. I have had this wine many times & tonight this was the best btl that I have had of this. — 4 years ago

Pierre Ponnelle

Volnay Pinot Noir 1981

A producer that I enjoyed many times over the years at Bern’s drinking their 40’s thru 60’s GC’s where back in the day they say the wines were made by Roumier. Dried cherry, strawberry fruits, earth, baking spice, orange peel & rose petal. Lighter in body than previous btls but still enjoyable. — 5 years ago
