May 15th, 2017From near my house- Viognier, grechetto, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from off the Appia Antica. Natural stuff, interesting for sure.

Feb 5th, 2016Nobody makes wines like this in the US. A 50-50 Cab-Merlot blend at 12.5% alcohol with no new oak? Yes, please. Great balance of spice, fruit and earth and very friendly to my plate of hen of the woods mushrooms with lardo.

Sep 2nd, 2017Tuscany travel research (however this selection is from Roma). Underwhelming 2012 selection. Mild acidity, some tannins. Lacked complexity expected from this Bordeaux varietal blend.

May 9th, 2016Wow. Remarkably good. This is an Italian 'traitor' -- Merlot/Cab. I vote for variety neutrality. These Italians worked wonders with French grapes!
