Très aromatique notes de fruits noirs, florales, belle rondeur mais une texture légère, belle fraîcheur. Super équilibre entre notes intenses finesse en bouche. — 5 years ago
First bottle of a half case we bought at the domaine in 2021. Definitely will be better in a few years but nice to try one on the earlier side. What they say is true - this is really easily Brunello level. At this point the nose isn’t giving a ton, but there is great depth of fruit and earth on the palate. This hits in several more parts of the mouth than most wines and the finish goes on for quite a while. Medium plus tannins and acid which should balance out a bit with some more age.
Opened the bottle 5 hours prior to service and then decanted for 2. Real candidate to be 9.5+ in a few years. — 2 months ago
Quite nice. A good value when I bought it and even better now as it’s going for $19. From the owners of Poggio di Sotto which we had the good fortune to taste at recently. Quite complete. Tannins at this point are still pretty forbidding, but at this price a good one to stock away for the future. — 3 years ago
Always like Altesino wines. Obviously no Poggio di Sotto or Stella de Campalto but this is still very delicious. Continue to love the Italian 2016s! Great fruit, well balanced acid, nice lifting finish. Good pairing with pork chops with a porchetta style seasoning. — 3 years ago
