Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2013

Needed an hour +. Ripe and mature enough but still on the early side. Very good balance. Tart and complex. Excellent accompaniment to the mushroom risotto and the veal that followed. — 22 days ago

Barbaresco Nebbiolo

Well developed and plateauing now. Lacks fruit density to carry tertiary development. Great match with veal cheeks, wild mushrooms and risotto. — 4 months ago

Pio Cesare

Barolo Nebbiolo

Dark fruit and cherries on the nose. Best served with a nice steak and truffle risotto. Earth tones of the meal reveal more fruits combined with a dry leather finishing lighter than you thought it should be. — 2 years ago

Renieri Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2015

Finesse. Maybe too long of a decant at 4 hours. Subtle black fruits, little clove, really mellow and good. Great with risotto and focaccia. 5 more bottles to experiment with. — 4 years ago
