Last ‘17 in cellar! In the heart of the Chianti lies Estate of Sette Ponti, 15 miles northwest of the city of Arezzo, past village of San Giustino Valdarno. Has 10% Merlot, aged in French Allier barriques, deep Ruby with red fruit aromas and floral notes. On the palate blackberry, plum and cherry flavors with blossom notes, spice and fine integrated tannins. Good balance, long finish ending with some oak and mineral tones. Nice! Will age a bit more! Tasting well now! — 3 years ago

Ruby dress. Multi-dimensional nose announcing a beautiful density: paradoxical green notes of mint, eucalyptus, then bark, then resin, roasting, cedar, vanilla, finally the fruit is revealed behind the tertiary and evolutionary notes (earth, humus, truffle). The bouquet is compact and consistent. The tannins are wide, and the acidity is medium. A wine on the scale that can withstand fatty and juicy dishes without any problem. Can age
Robe rubis. Nez multi-dimensionnel annonçant une belle densité: notes vertes paradoxales de menthe, eucalyptus, puis écorces, puis résine, torréfaction, cèdre, vanille, enfin le fruit se révèle derrière les notes tertiaires et d’évolution (terre, humus, truffe). Le bouquet est compact et cohérent. Les tanins sont amples, et l’acidité moyenne. Un vin sur l’ampleur qui pourra supporter des mets gras et juteux sans aucun problème. Peut vieillir. — 2 years ago
Az. Agr. Fiorano ‘Giulia Erminia’ Marche Bianco IGT 2015: Well-balanced. Bright acidity. Big taste. Pronounced lemon notes, light oak and a touch of vanilla. Elegant long finish. All in all, one of the best Pecorino wines I’ve had in a really long time. A great wine pairing/selection with the awesome food from Valenti & Co. in San Anselmo of Potato Gnocchi and Costoletta alla Milanese! Great day to all wine lovers! Cheers🍷 — 3 years ago
Terre s Di San Vito blend of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon — a year ago
Intense spiced berry, black licorice and peppery florals emerge from the 2017 Terre di San Leonardo. Silky with depths of fruit accelerated by brisk acids, the 2017 leaves the palate reeling, with its spry, lightly structured personality. This young-vine Bordeaux blend is an amazing value. $22.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, January 2022) — 3 years ago
Surprising, unusual - feeling like drinking wine as it would have been made 100 years ago. High acidity, sour fruit. — 3 years ago
