Opened and decanted an hour before tasting. Cedar, toasty oak, brown spices, damp earth, pinches of milk chocolate, coffee and pruney fruit. Still fairly tannic too. Does this wine have sufficient fruit and freshness for the long haul…?
Now, its good, not great.

The 2012 Vin San Giusto is incredibly refined. There is plenty of the richness that readers have come to expect from the Vin San Giusto, but at the same time, the 2012 is wonderfully precise and nuanced. Spicecake, tobacco, cedar and mint give the 2012 lovely aromatic complexity that gives the wine a remarkable sense of lightness for such a rich sweet wine. In a word: superb.

In Tivat, Montenegro on the dock at Al Posto Giusto. Wholly unique. Big fruit, full. Our server said it’s the best wine of Croatia. — 5 years ago

See previous note for this Cuvée. Shows the brilliance of the 2019 vintage in Tuscany. Dried cherry and earth. I bought some newly released 2019 Brunellos last week which will be put in the cellar for a long slumber. — 2 months ago

Sono felice di trovale questo. Il produttore e’ popolare di presentare sauvignion blanc da Loire. Veramente la botteglia ha il profumo tipicale del uovo. Sarebbe abbastanza di bere tutto giorno. Pensando il prezzo, e’ giusto di comprare sei botteglie quando l’ho trovato. — 5 years ago
