Very nice. Full-bodied, a little sweet at the tongue, but quickly cut with a bramble, dirt finish. Quite drinkable. — 8 months ago
Consider it an intoxicated decision that I brought this bottle for a boys night out… Intoxicated on the high of Stella’s stellar Rosso a couple of nights ago that is. And given how displeased my wife was when informed that it was the only bottle we had, you could say this was a misjudged decision. It was great though - clearly cut from the same cloth as the Rosso but with extra depth, the Brunello soared with a bouquet of fresh flowers, strawberries, cherries, exotic spices, and hints of vanilla, followed by an incredible robust-yet-airy palate, with a mineral undertow and an elegant silky texture only found in the finest of Burgundy. But the question remains - was it great enough to warrant the wrath of a woman? Thankfully, I was never granted the “privilege” to find out. Call it husbandly smarts, but I was sensible enough to spare a couple of glasses for the wife that evening, and was quick to secure more bottles from the importer. — 3 years ago
Bottle #2 from the LB chardo mystery case….one of those super heavy chard btls…much better than #1, a ton of flavor, heavy on citrus & honey, not offensive in any way, but at the same time a little too up front on the palate, not much restraint. Stands up well to strongly flavored dishes. NB: open btl does not age well! — 3 months ago
Pre-Covid vintage; what have these grapes of wrath provided unto us mere mortals? Pink and gold, excellent clarity. Strawberries in nose and mouth, hints of peach, apple, pear and lemon flavor, mineral finish. Acidity is fine; this ain’t watery to my palate, just “lightly flavored”. If you want a fruit-forward red fruit dominant Rosé, this is not your wine. Its charm is it’s different. Good for sipping, but not a great food wine, I’d think — 3 years ago
