Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy
Fresh off the boat, showing a bit closed and demure right now but will certainly improve with time. I often recommend this wine for Burgundy fans on a weeknight budget and will continue to do so.

Light and delicate, but satisfying all the same - very similar to my silk long johns, but for the tongue...

Sep 6th, 2015Really enjoyed this wine. Robust and complex. Paired well with a rich tomato sauce (amatriciana). Would love to have again!

Apr 23rd, 2019This one didn't quite meet my expectations based upon the way it has been built up from what I heard. Nonetheless, this is a solid wine. Color was Garnett, a dark middle but brick at the edge. Nose was warmer and fruitier than I expected. Warm, baked clove, toasted bread, Rose, Sage, mushrooms, raspberries. Tastes surprisingly tart and acidic, cranberry, pomegranate, dried herbaceous, hints of licorice, mushroom. It became more "Pinot-esque" as it drank with the mushroom coming out late. Based on my previous experience with this grape, it was surprisingly tart forward on the tongue, but in the end, it was still three dimensional.

Feb 18th, 2018As I'm not a fan of Pinot Noir, this one exceeded expectations. Very good, rich yet dry.
