Displays dusty black cherry, crushed stone, wild herbs, and hints of old leather. On the palate, soft textures are offset by zesty acids and spice, with saline-minerals creating a sweet and sour expression. The finish is balanced, fresh and tactile, with a note of tart cranberry. $22.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2020)

These are not safe here. From magnum and really good. Needed more time and opened two hours before sipping.

Soulful. Red cherries and herbs. Was much better on day two and needs a little time in the cellar.

Quite deep and bright ruby , narrow pink rim , pretty intense. High toned red fruit nose , red cherry , strawberry jam , fresh herbs . On the palate quite high acidity and juicy red fruits , cherry pie , with touch of liquorice and pine resin , herbal touches on the decent length finish. Quite rich and mouth filling, alcohol is perhaps just noticeable but doesn’t unbalance the wine . After a while really becomes quite mineral and complex . This comes across as intense , mouth filling and refreshing , quite a difficult style to pull off ! Quite young and will certainly benefit from a few years in the cellar and last well a further 7-10 years .

Black cherry, earth, and forest. Vibrant, dark, and brooding.

Really a delicious Sangiovese from Emilia Romagna. One could do worse than having this as your house Sangiovese and the produttori langhe as your house nebbiolo. This is somewhat lush with great fruit and nice earth and some minerality. Tannins are somewhat unstructured but for less than $25 it’s really very nice.

Leather, saline, black pepper, touch of cocoa powder, ferrous tannins. Nice to revisit Emilia-Romagna. From Flatiron Wines. 07/01/21
