Superb mature Barolo. Tar, rose petals, earthy minerality with dark cherry fruit. Med + acidity, med + tannins. Drinking window is open and will go for another 5 years. — 12 days ago

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2020

9.2

Delightful reasonably priced Brunello for the quality. Impressive nose on opening with non—aggressive raspberry strawberry cherry mild spice and mild undergrowth. The palate is fruit forward with the same fruit and spice profiles with soft tannins extending the finish for a while. Not sure it will cellar well but it’s at a peak now with little air needed. — 21 days ago

Bricco dell'Uccellone Barbera d'Asti 2020

9.1

This is the most iconic barbera in Italy
The story of the label is very curious

Single site hill where a lady had a house.
She was nicknamed "Uccellone" meaning big bird due to her prominent nose that resembled a bird beak. Nonetheless "Uccellone" in italian slang also mean "big penis"...
The local priest was horrified by this label and accused Braida of pushing the boundaries too much. The answer was from him to produce another wine honouring the priest called Bricco della Bigotta(Bigot).

The wine is big, it goes in large oak for 12 months plus 12 months in the bottle before release and needs decanting. Super smooth, super complex, this is a wine for blue cheese or meditation.
It keeps giving you different shade every time you swirl it.
Personally i prefer other style of barbera, but it is a super interesting wine with a lot of history too. — a month ago
