Bramble fruit. Cherry pie filling metallic fun. Definitely not on the same level as their Nero di lupo, or Classico, but still a knockout go to wine! — 8 years ago

1996 vintage. At Boca di Lupo. Medium garner hue. Very expressive on the nose - cherry, tan leather, chocolate, sweet spice and slight gamey note. Complex. Palate is superb: balanced. Medium plus acidity and concentration. Ripe tannins. Great length. Really in a sweet spot. Will hold for sometime yet. — 8 years ago

1995 vintage. At Boca di Lupo. Deep lemon hue. This is a wow wine. The nose is very complex and alluring: honey, citrus fruits with a hint of peach, petrol notes, and steely minerality. On the palate, the wine has bracing acidity and is energetic and tense, while hugely concentrated. Medium bodied with some oily texture, and medium alcohol. A broad fresh mid palate that fills your mouth's senses, and a fabulous finish that goes on for a minute or more. This wine could improve even from here: drink now until 2027+. Simply superb. — 8 years ago

2007 vintage. At Boca di Lupo. Medium lemon hue. Heavy patisserie, slight oxidative notes, ripe stone fruits and lemon peel, some nutty notes. Wow. On the palate, dry, medium plus fresh acidity, medium body, lemon curd rich and deep concentration of flavour. Fairly long finish. Reminds me of NV Selosse Substance. Drink now until 2023. — 9 years ago

2001 vintage in Double Magnum at Boca Di Lupo. This has to be among the greatest Californian wines I have drunk. Deep ruby hue. Full concentration of graphite, black cherry and coffee aromas, cedar wood and char. Leather, saddlewood and Earth. Hugely complex and developing in the glass. On the palate, balanced and smooth, medium acidity, ripe fruits, medium plus body, full concentration, lush fine grained tannins. Very long. In this format, the wine sings, and the fruit is still present in droves suggesting that the bottle is maturing slowly.. Drink now until 2030+. Scoring on the nose was simple: it's a clearly 100 point wine in every sense. On the palate, It didn't live up to the reputation of the wonderful nose, and those slight shortcomings drop the mark down a few percentage points. A magnificent effort.. Outstanding. 98/100. — 9 years ago

Really trying to get an understanding of the Lagrein grape while in its home region of Italy. This is a nice one, but quite different in style than the Nusserhof we had the other night. Deep dark violet in the glass. After an hour of air, quite nice aromatically, with deep dark fruits coming through and the initial oak note blowing off. Full bodied, with a fair bit of young tannin - which made it a great pairing for simple meats from a rustic wood grille. Nice long finish with good acid. — 6 years ago

clear and gold. i don’t get much on the nose, pretty low intensity, hard to pull out aromas. dry, medium + body, almost round on the palate. medium - acid. hard to pick out flavors on this one. pear strikes me as the main note. maybe some green melon too ? good wine, good with food (lamb gyro) — 7 years ago

2011 vintage. At Boca di Lupo. Medium ruby hue. Nose is slightly rustic: bramble fruits, earth, manure and hints of old oak wood. On the palate, medium acidity and alcohol, medium concentration and body. The mid palate is a bit hollow and the wine generally is flat. The finish is decent but not memorable. Disappointing for a Malconsorts. Might improve from here: drink now until 2023+. — 8 years ago

This is my favorite Winery. And this is my favorite wine from my favorite Winery. As Cerasuolo di Vittoria is Sicily's only docg it's apparent why so. The dark complex fruits of cherry and plum in the frappatto balance and harmonize perfectly with the tobacco, smoke and clay mineral of the nero d'avolo. The ratio was perfect as well. It's a big wine so it gives you the robustness and the impact of a masculine wine. However the complexity and subtlety is not overshadowed by the robustness. All too often I see in central Italian wines the favoring of one over the other. For instance Chianti gives you a big hit and is very dry and very big but has no complexity. This offers The Best of Both Worlds it is close to a perfect wine.

This Wine I intend to buy by the case on that one along with many of their other wines including nero di Lupo & pithos rosso — 9 years ago
