Apr 23rd, 2017Out of #coravin the nose pops out, rich baked fruit with some white pepper and spice. Firm structure. Drinking well but should continue to improve a few more years #chianticlassico

Nov 6th, 2015Chianti Classico DOCG 2004, 14%. A blend of 7 different Sangiovese clones, and other grapes too. We had a magnum bottle (1,5 lt) on Easter Sunday. Good color, even if a little dark. At the nose first hints of plums, then licorice, wood, a bit toasted. Good acidity in the mouth, good body, smooth tannins. 88/100

Dec 28th, 2013This was outstanding. Strongly tannic on opening, then evens out with distinct cherry, dust and earth notes. A classy wine, several years left on it. At Alba's.
