Dark ruby color. Peppery smell. Floral, ripe red fruit. Nice acidity, but mostly silky smooth and juicy. Very drinkable by itself, and a flavor profile that I very much enjoy. Purchased from Vons. — 3 months 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

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) — 2 years ago

May or may not have cost $78. (Joke won’t age well). Quite a bit detectable brett funk here, but still tasty. — 7 months ago

This is a keeper, had this with poached salmon garlic shrimp and spinach. Wonderful full body with just hints of herbs and a little olive.
