A successful court day in Fresno with my associate Tyler and we found a Fleming’s and hit up some wine after. This was decadently delicious. Much more approachable than I expected. — 4 months ago

👍 With poached salmon in mushroom sauce, Brussels sprouts slaw, and rice. Nice wine, but not the best pairing. I should have also roasted the sprouts to crisp them more, and served with potatoes instead of rice. Live and learn! — 2 days ago

Smooth, fruit forward, but still has old world complexity. Great super Tuscan, and a really good value. Ordering bottle number two in a moment. — 12 days ago

My God! What a wine! Sweet/sour, violet, graphite, mouthfilling fruit but good acid structure. However, still quite tannic. I was blown away by this wine... — 3 days ago

This is a real sleeper. Sneaky concentration and complexity on the back with very rustic tobacco ash, mineral and woodsmoke character. Even a hint of black fruit showing up on the finish. Really fine effort. — 7 days ago

I’ve been waiting to try this wine for ages & after the amazing showing in 2015 vintages I’ve had from 🇮🇹 of Sassicaia, Tignanello & Saffredi I hoped this £72 bottle would be awesome to & it is 😉 Still tannic (in a good way) but it’s a great drop in the making 👍 I’d leave 5-6 years to enjoy & beyond but in 10 years it could be 💥

Really nice Bolgheri, and great value. Refined and nicely arrayed palate of cocoa, chocolates and dark red fruit. The Syrah adds some oomph and structure. A yummy candies cherry quality and grippy tannins suggest additional cellar time could be rewarded. — 21 days ago

‘06 impressed. Needed a full hour to sort out - do not P&P - but when it did, iodine-infused black and red sour cherries. Beautifully framed, nicely lifted. Nose of dusty Brunello. years to go. — 24 days ago
