This Brunello shows its Sangiovese’s expression to a nice level, packed with cherry notes and flavors, the garnish color gives a nice clue how bright the acidity is on the back of your palate. Great vainilla and woody taste. Tannins are medium, dry enough to Pair with mushrooms dishes, including Risottos. — a month ago
2021 vintage.
100 % Falanghina from single vineyard in Irpinia, Campania.

70 % fermented in stainless steel and 30 % partial fermentation in small oak barrels.
Bright, straw golden green colour.
White flowers, herbs, ripe apples and pineapple. It has a great textural richness on the finish.
It spends 8 months resting on its lees.
Quintodecimo also produces Greco di Tufo and Fiano di Avellino……also equally impressive. — 2 months ago
Drinking beautifully now. Nose has macerated wild cherry, and savory minerality. Developing a secondary note of aged, well cared for leather. Rather full in the mouth. Deep fruit and a lengthy, minerally gravel-laced finish. Medium acids are kind of sneaky, coming on as the finish extends. Still some very soft tannin present. Lots of character for the money.
UPDATE: Night 2, nose is now showing a crushed rosemary leaf note — 4 days ago

Chiara Boschis is the white wizard of modern Barolo. At six years this is tasting amazing, takes about 90 mins to fully flourish but once its there, the wine displays beautiful structure, fine grain tannins, vivid acidity, and a balanced play between perfectly ripe fruit and earthy undertones. My chef friend was kind enough to gift me some fresh black truffle from Piedmont. Can’t begin to explain the harmony in the pairing. Cheers. — 4 days ago
