Note to self: should be my house red. Catnip for black cherry/ dark fruit junkies like me. — 7 days ago

Medium bodied, firmly structured and rather energetic, it sports a reserved and savory profile of aromatic wild herbs and spicy underbrush fruit.

As it warmed up in the stemware, it began to better display a balanced structure with vibrant acidity and fine grained tannins. The finish is juicy and long. — 3 months ago

My contribution for a guys night of rosé sparklers and Brunello. Alongside a few bottles of Biondi Santi, Il Poggione, Mastro Janni, and others.

Zero experience with this producer, and while I struggle to find my preferred “style” in Italy (Italian merlot?, old Barolo?, Brunello of all ages?), this brunello was lights out good and right up my alley. I slow-oxed this for almost an hour. Layers! Deep red. So floral and sweet-spice forward aromatically with faint oak. Dense and powerful core of roasted black cherry, tar, sweet tobacco, light balsamic and herbal pop with a juicy and massive finish…big structure (but the acidity keeps this hard to resist another sip). Obviously in a slightly bigger style thanks to the vintage, this is incredibly well put together and complex. I think I have one more, thankfully.

Day two showed an even more integrated wine that was firing on all cylinders. Decant 2-3hrs or hold a few more years for this window. 94-95+

Served with lobster ravioli, prime beef tenderloin carpaccio, lamb rack…about as good as it gets with rosé sparkling wines and Brunello! — a month ago

Opened about an hour before service and enjoyed over the course of a few hours. The 2020 pours a garnet color with a transparent core, medium+ with light staining. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of tart and ripe red fruits: Morello cherry, blackberries, tomato leaf, dried herbs, some warm spices and dry soil. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes form the nose. The finish is medium+. Lovely. Drink now through 2030. — 2 months ago

Excellent. High QPR. #doloresoutpost Pop and pour and enjoy for a couple of hours. Or cellar and revisit along the way for another 10 years. — 4 years ago
