Wow, it started slow, wasn’t sure which way it would go, it slowly opened up to reveal a 10/10 balance, structure, length and energy. Made me really savor the last 1/3 of the bottle! — 3 months ago
Enjoyed it with classic past dishes at the Vegas Carbine restaurant. Went especially well with the vodka sauce pasta. — 4 months ago
Tasted in a flight of 2006s, it was hard to choose between this one at the Roche. Both great! — 5 months ago

Pinkish Italian wine, very well developed. Reminds me of a rombauer or earthquake zin. Solid. Only drink if you want something deep, rich, and complex. Pairs very well with green grapes and crackers, but not a dry aged steak or seafood. Not a heavy drinking wine.

From back when their fruit from the Le Coste MGA was blended with Brunate. These days, the Le Coste fruit goes in to “Tre Tine” along with Ravera and Cannubi San Lorenzo.
Opened about two hours prior to service and enjoyed over the course of a couple hours. The 2001 Brunate-Le Coste pours a garnet color with a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of Bing cherry, tar, roses, some varnish, cedar chest, some cool spices and gravelly earth. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and quite round. This bottle shows the generosity of the vintage and yet, it seems to want even more time in the cellar. One can certainly drink now through 2061. — 2 months ago

I've had a few vintages of this and it never disappoints. It's a great mix of lively fruit and some rustic qualities. Pairs with just about anything. I'm going to have it with spaghetti squash and grilled chicken and mushrooms.
