Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a few hours. The 2017 Pajé pours a garnet color with a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of Morello cherry, cranberry, freeze dried strawberry, ground cumin, tar, talcum powder, old cedar chest, some varnish and dry gravelly earth. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium and loaded with savory minerals. Still very much in its youth, this was a lovely solar expression of Pajé. Drink now with patience through 2047. Bottle No. 2045/6666

I'm usually skeptical about Italian whites but this one is really nice! Good aromas and flavors of ripe stone fruits, and a nice balance of acid, body and minerals on the palate. 100% Verdeca... that's a grape name to remember! — a month ago

Upon opening, the tannins were overbearing, but after a two hour decant it opened up and softened nicely, with cherry, anise, earth, violets, and roses coming through on the nose. On the palate, the anise and floral flavors shine bright, and the finish is exquisite, with the floral notes providing a vivid, persistent finish with underlying notes of spice and earth. The wine has a smooth mouthfeel, with tannins providing astringency on the finish. Such a beautiful, elegant barbaresco that paired wonderfully with tagliatelle bolognese. — 5 months ago

Absolutely stellar Nebbiolo. Medium garnet color with a ruby core. Expressive aromas of bright red cherry, rose petals, tar, leather, black pepper and eucalyptus. The palate also features red cherries along with ripe red plums/raspberries, black licorice, black tea and Asian spices. Nice crunchy minerality on the long and luxurious finish. Incredible combination of power and finesse. Gorgeous texture. Medium bodied and extremely well balanced. A very special wine. Thanks to Kasey and Petey for sharing. Revisited in May 2026. Savory and earthy notes coming to the forefront. Exceptional structure and texture. Wonderful development. — 2 years ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 2023 pours a bright garnet color with a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of raspberries, pomegranate, rose bushes in bloom, licorice, gravelly earth and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium. This was a perfect red for duck confit outside on a warm day. Drink now through 2033. — 4 months ago

This app is finally working again. Very nice barbaresco with bright, youthful red fruit and polished tannins. I favor the Ovello, but this is mighty fine.

Look, I work in agriculture, a farming, family, but damn farmer wine is good. I have not had any farmer or co-op wine in a long time that just meets the threshold of wow for this one. I mean just the color is beautiful clear Ruby and Claret with no obscuring whatsoever. This is not something we’re gonna be like oh a dissect the flavors for 30 minutes. It is good, solid amazing wine with clarity of color, absolute focus of flavor in beautiful concentration of the grape and the expression of the land and the spices, and a perfect balance of the acidity structure they’re in. I wish I would’ve bought more of this.  — 9 months ago
