Antica Terra

Botanica Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2022

The Antica Terra Botanica Pinot Noir has concentrated notes of black cherry compote, mulberry, wild strawberry, violet, blood orange peel, crushed stone, tarragon leaves, cacao nibs, & clove with fine, polished tannins, lifted acidity, balance; an elegant wine that’s light on its feet with depth of character, projecting a quiet strength. — 2 months ago

Fun wines. I get the hype but perhaps a little flashy for my taste.

@Jay Kline They were fun & delicious but I can see how they’re not for everybody.

Rocca dell'Olmo

Barbera d'Asti 2022

Simple but good — acidity makes it better than the $15 reserve TJ’s Barbera I tried recently … but this was only $6? Like it better than last time for sure. Will definitely try again! — 5 months ago

Barolo Nebbiolo 2021

Trader Joe’s Classic!!!! This usually stinks. But not in this stellar 2021 vintage. Not super complex but more on the elegant side. I would think this will age for 10 years or so. After 24 hours even better and more convincing. Quite tannic! Grab it by the case while it is there the 2022 will be awful (my prediction). And at 20 bucks…….. — 2 months ago

Tre Monti

Vigna Rocca Secco Albana di Romagna 2024

First 2024 wine!! This is really excellent - haven’t had this grape (albana) before. Orange but in the way that I like - no overly “natural” funk and instead just excellent stony fruit and some great grip. Very juicy and almost savory with a long finish. Great value at $22. — 4 months ago

Riserva Rocca de Piro Grumello Valtellina Superiore Nebbiolo 2017

Very good. High toned red berries and soil. A bit softer than the Sassella but you really have to squint to tell the difference — 2 months ago

Antica Terra

Ceras Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

Nose - forest floor, wood, tobacco, moss. Main flavors - stewed plum and light baking spices. A bit of tannic structure but overall smooth and earthy. Like no Pinot noir I’ve ever had. Tremendous! Read the James Suckling review and he has it right it’s moody. But I think moody in the best possible way. — 3 months ago
