@delectable this is called “gran maestro.” Wow. Amazing wine. Nose is lilacs. Almost volnay. Maybe crossed with really good old school napanir Bordeaux. Sweet blackberries. Gorgeous. Very deep. Amplitude is 10/10. Huge nostril filler. Like an atomizers inside your nostrils. A $200 nose.
Palate is wonderful. A cross between a perfect blueberry and a perfect wild just picked blackberry. Fresh. Some spice. Some licorice. Insane texture. But it’s all about the balance. Just coats the palate and sticks there. Lingering finish. Juicy. Blackberry licorice. 30 seconds at least.
Needs 30 minutes to integrate.

Very light berry on the nose but smooth as silk on the tongue. Cool melted vanilla spice. Lovely. — 8 years ago
Finessed tension. Bright brambly black fruits dance delightfully. Happy aromas that waft out of the glass. This is the type of bottle that disappears. Underated. — 4 years ago
Wowza is this a classic Montepulciano or what. Super rustic, fruity, and rich. You’d need an equally rich food to meet this match. Almost too intense of a grape, but certainly an experience. — 5 years ago
A delightful sangiovese. Taste of deep cherry nose, a spicy, tanned leather. Bright tart cherry. An excellent choice for a casual meal of pizza or pasta in marinara. Just a very solid everyday wine. — 6 years ago
First time cooking recommended recipes to pair with wine (orecchiette with broccoli rabe and sausage). Rainy Sunday, but slowly recovering from sickness — 6 years ago
