This needed time to open up; was high on alcohol but well balanced. Sangiovese. — 9 years ago
My first experience with Gaglioppo grapes. Awesome fruit. Mild taste. Prunes & plumes. Hints of tobacco. Off red in color; almost a brown. Well balanced. Long beautiful finish. Can't wait to explore more Calabrian wines! — 10 years ago
Old skool. Wonderful. Nose is like a young port crossed with lilac jam. Amazingly powerful and beautiful. Palate is blackberries and a hint of chocolate. Sweet and perfectly dense blackberries. Wow.
Too young and needs an hour decant but what a wine.
Man the nose is elegant.
Super traditional.
This wine is like a tank ballerina. Preposterously densely elegant on the nose. Palate is dense big fruit. Spice. Pleasurable. Almost two wines in one. But the nose is l33t.

Very acidic, and fruity but not at all sweet. It has a very slight carbonation that dances beautifully on the tongue and gives a very crisp apple feel to it. Vinho Verde is a very young wine that has not been fermented. — 9 years ago
This calls for grilled white fish. Green olive tapenade. This bottle was saffron yellow. Nice acidity. Where is the next seafood barbecue. — 9 years ago

Huge cherries. I mean Andre the Giant huge. Spice and licorice and lovely accessibly. So friendly. Red cherries. Amazing fruit. Sick nose. How is this so good? Palate is rich and ripe with wonderful structure and sappy black and red fruits and lovely hit of licorice. Spice on the finish as well. Terrific tannins and great acids. Good concentration. Terrific. — 6 years ago
Smells like green pepper. Very smooth, tastes much better at room temp. Cannot taste the pepper flavors otherwise. — 6 years ago

Pleasantly surprised. The red blend they produce I had a few days ago was pretty tannins. This one was a bit more restrained. Had some spice to this soft wine. Nice black fruit. — 5 years ago
