Rocca Del Principe

Michele Chiarlo

Il Principe Langhe Nebbiolo

With scallops, octopus, crab, and later short ribs at an Italian restaurant. The glue has subsided, not rubbery, some fruit is coming out. But not special.

21 minutes later: The candied bacon came out, and it compliments the short rib very well.

Rocca dell'Olmo

Barolo Nebbiolo 2019

Trader Joe’s. Long gone! For 15$ quite good! This is the 2019 - one of the best vintages in Piedmont. So - in this case even lousy cheapo wineries made great wine. Tastes like 40$. Roses, super astringent, violets. Hint Eucalyptus. A little rough: Bought a case most gone should have bought 2 - will age the last 3 bottles just out of curiosity - could go another 5-10 years. Thanks Scott for this find!!! — 2 months ago

@Pinotman /// Andreas Aaaargh!! Was at Trader Joe’s a few hours ago browsing. They still have the 2020 edition but guess who rifled through all 24 bottles on display looking for a bottle of the 2019? No dice. They rotate stock waay better than your average bear/grocery store. Enjoy!!

San Marcellino Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Sangiovese 2017

Medium ruby , medium ruby garnet rim . Quite aromatic , cedar, red cherry , cut herbs , and a slight meaty , soy , balsamic touch . On the palate quite lean red fruits and some dark cherry , blackberry , cedar , liquorice with a herbal tinge . Gritty tannin , quite high acidity . Slightly short and lean on the finish . This is drinking at peak now , doesn’t have the structure or density to last so would recommend to drink over the next 3-5 years . — 2 months ago
