2001 Valdicava Riserva Madonna Piano Nebbiolo. Drank at Reddwood. This wine was much bigger and more velvety than the Giacosa Barbaresco. I might have preferred this wine slightly. K didn't think this wine quite lived up to expectations. — 8 years ago

Tenuta Greppo (Biondi-Santi)

Rosso di Montalcino Sangiovese 2004

Great year. Still a little tight. I should have probably wait and let the wine linger a little longer in the glass and let air help this baby out. — 9 years ago

Conti Costanti

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2005

First of this kind that I have had. For the price, younger barolos are more complex with longer finishes — 11 years ago

Marchesi Antinori

Pian delle Vigne Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2009

2009 brunello di montalcino from Antinori. Notes of dead leaves, cigar box, overripe red cherries, old leather and burning forest. Decanted for 3 hours the palate is soft with approachable tannins that linger for a little bit but not too long, with an ashy, leathery quality that excites me. I don't usually dig Italian wines, but then again I usually never drink Italian wines this good. Great, great wine. — 9 years ago

Casanova di Neri

Cerretalto Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 1997

By the first time since I saw Cerretalto the vineyard with my eyes, I felt in love with the wine: a mystic core which pour out from that ferrous almost mulberry soil brushed by a gentle breeze that blow through the hills of Val d'Orcia; sober, clear, severe, tidy wine a generous and enduring expression of that certain land. — 10 years ago

Fanti

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2001

No decant brings a bit of brett which blew off quickly to reveal earth, cherry and plum, and some barrel notes. About at peak maturity I would think. Paired great with tonites pasta bolognese. — 9 years ago

Cerbaiona

Cerbaiona di Diego Molinari Brunello di Montalcino 1999

Probably our wine of the night, but I can't say I'm trading in my Burgundy card for Brunello anytime soon. — 9 years ago
