Sipping Fine Wine

9.1

Opened another recently, legendary wine, said that in the 18th century was introduced to Sultan of Constantinople's palace b/c of its clarity and called "mineral water from Carbonnieux", defying Islamic law. Pale lemon with pronounce aromas of tropical and stone fruits with herb notes. On the palate flavors of melon, mango, apple, green herbs and a crisp mineral edge. Medium+ length, balanced acidity, ending with a fruit, citrus mineral character. Nice, aging well. — 5 years ago

Exactly what you'd expect from a sweet, red Italian. Slight sparkle. Low alcohol. Delicious. — 6 years ago

2015. Mango, stone, and apricot. Very nice acidity with the perfect amount of oak (which is to say, very little). Lacks value at a $30 price point however. — 9 years ago

2014 base—great to have this with a bit of age adding extra layers of depth (usually drinking 2018) and it was indeed a great start. — 6 years ago

It’s not peppery, which I always look for in a Pinot, but I nonetheless love this wine. — 6 years ago

Joe Davant

9.2

Dried rose petals, black licorice, and a touch of tar, plus a light body, but a long finish. Tannins were very present at first, but mellowed nicely over the course of the evening. Very enjoyable. — 7 years ago

Fresh herbs, wet stones, and a kiss of white peach on the nose. Soft tropical fruit and a hint of hazelnut. Crisp mineral finish — 7 years ago

Plummy and jammy on the nose, and spicy on the pallette. Good tannins, and velvety smooth. Lingering finish of pepper and leather. Dark flavors but a light presence. Surprisingly light, for a red blend of Malbec, C/F and Merlot. — 9 years ago

Majority Cab Franc with Cab Sav and Carmenere. Luscious with tons of cherry 🍒 fruit and a nice expression of the terroir of the region. — 9 years ago

"made from classic Tuscan red grapes. Has a bright red color with purple hues. on the nose it displays rich aromas of blackberry, cherry and violets, while on the pallet there is an abundance of crisp elegant cherry fruit" — 6 years ago

A bit too direct and rocky for me. Definitely a style. It was bracing and the acid high. It did have an interesting nose of terroir — 6 years ago

" the Sangiovese grapes have created an intensely colored wine with ripe blackberry fruits on the nose followed by floral plum characters on the palate. Beautifully concentrated and fine, with a long fruit laden finish." — 7 years ago
