Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Corvina Blend 2010

We are not usually big fans of these raisin wines, but this one was actually pretty nice. Punching like a heavyweighter, but still moving around in the ring with the elegance of a ballet dancer. — 10 years ago

Castello di Verduno

Faset Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2006

An abject lesson in the importance of decanting. Hated this at first, oaky and harshly alcoholic. Let it develop for a few hours and it's come together like magic. It's like I pulled back the curtain on a ballet before the performers were ready. Barbaresco still has my heart. — 11 years ago

Another great example of the power & finesse of the Doña Margarita vineyard. Proof that Pinot Noir is the ballet dancer of wine grapes. — 11 years ago

Domaine Marc Roy

Vieilles Vignes Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2011

My friend told me it's a very sexy wine, the body is kinda light, and not so much tannin, but you can smell it's complex. Sry still learning how to express a wine, anyways, I could only imagine a 13 yrs girl dancing ballet from it. — 11 years ago
