Vigna l'Apparita Toscana IGT Merlot 2009

Wow. Amazing gusto from a Merlot. Frank over two days. Tons of tannin and structure- next one will be opened in 5 years. Lovely notes of dark fruit and a hint of toasted tobacco A touch dry on the palate - but really enjoyable. — 9 days ago

Big notes. Lower rating?

The dry mouthfeel was disappointing - thinking it will resolve in 5 years or more.

I love this Montalcino ($63 Davidson’s) and the general cherry-herbal-menthol flavor profile of Montalcinos. I’ve had this one before, and enjoyed just as much. The highest Delectable rated of my recent Montalcino purchases, interestingly. — 21 days ago

Riserva Vigna Paganelli Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2016

Black cherries, brush, smoke. Power, depth, and verve. I felt it had even more to give with more age or air. — 5 hours ago

Vigna Scarrone Barbera d'Alba 2021

2021 vintage. Last tasted a week ago (9.3). Everything I said then + a caviar bump this tasting episode. Unexpected lushness hand in hand with likes to fight guy...er...tannins. Ridiculous juice now. Dunno where it'll land in a 5-spot but guessing it'll be a pretty perfect landing. 7.23.24. — a month ago

Tenuta Caparzo

Vigna La Casa Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2018

Medium Ruby color with fragrant berry fruit, spice and earthy floral notes. On the palate flavors of cherry, raspberry and cedar with notes of pepper, tangy mouthfeel. Fine tannins, long savory finish ending with a mushroom, citrus and earthy mineral character. Nice! — a month ago

Vigna Cinque Querce Taurasi Aglianico 2007

Man, this is a powerhouse. Can’t believe it had 14 year so far age because it still packs a punch, and is very dense and tannic. Leather, cigar box, cherry compote. Very interesting that they don’t harvest til mid-November, probably explains the concentration! — 2 months ago
