In a great place now. Roses and still mostly red fruit driven with black truffle and balsamic notes seeping in around the edges. Lovely wine with coneglio, but better suited for a crisp fall evening than a 95 degree afternoon! — 10 months ago

It’s ok to drink it. Started rounded. Of course still tannic, but enough taste with black fruits and mushroom etc. 2016 @1680, vin37, 201113 — 3 years ago

It's a 9.5 kind of night. Oh my Dorthy, how I wish we were eating pizza with this. The pasta with fava beans, mushrooms, and prosciutto did us well though. Have to get another bottle of this for future use. — 7 years ago

Big flavors with big alcohol (16.5%) that doesn’t show. Feels like it’s going to go sweet, but finishes dry and dusty. A pleasant puzzle. — 6 months ago

Big wine but elegant; velvet smooth, roses and cherries and cinnamon, flamboyant and composed at the same time — 9 months ago

White cherry on the nose, apricot skin, grapefruit pith, lots of minerality and savory notes on the palette, acidic and tannic but we'll balanced - lots of character — 2 years ago

Tasted blind. Dark red and opaque. Notes of tart cherries, earth, molasses, some wood, and a hint of VA that blew off. Rich fruit in the mouth. Monolithic though, and very quiet compared to the diva 64 Giacosa that is singing next to it. Perhaps it was the less air time that this had. What a treat to taste two great 64 Barolos side by side, brought brown-bagged by two different people. — 4 years ago

Brilliant. Light bodied and graceful with pure and elegant red fruits carrying graceful tannins and lovely acidity into a long finish. Understand style. Burgundian. Love it! — 6 years ago

Cinghiale. Love mascarello, but this needs more time, despite the hot summer in '09. — 8 years ago

One of last bottles I bought in 2004 in Italy at winery. Absolutely gorgeous nose. Cherry, floral, Coca Cola. Still has lots of fruit smooth tannins and great length. Drinking window by professional stated through 2015. Has at least 5 years in my mind. — 8 years ago

Ruby color with a bouquet of dark fruit, spices, leather, oak and floral notes, blended from 3 vineyards, long skin maceration. On the palate flavors of black cherry, currants and raspberry with notes of pepper, floral and mint. Long finish, nice balance with fine soft sweet chewy tannins ending with fruit and earthy notes. Just starting to drink now! Will continue to age. — 8 months ago

The 2021 Zinfandel Giuseppe & Luisa is a vibrant, super-expressive wine. Sweet red cherry, mint, chalk, white flowers and white pepper bring out the higher-toned side of Zinfandel. Medium in body and racy, the Giuseppe & Luisa is a real charmer. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, July 2023)

Exactly what I am looking for in a Brunello. Lovely balance of fruit and acidity. Typical Sangiovese characteristics coming through. Tertiary aromas of mushrooms and smoke starting to appear. At a perfect stage for drinking now. — 5 years ago
