Imperial Treasure Teochew Ion with Andrew Dutton. Barnyard nose. Smooth and silky tannins. Guessed young Barolo or Barbaresco.
Powerfully heady nose of sottobosco and dead leaves. On the palate it's as fresh as fresh veg – massive freshness after an initial impression of prunes. Extremely subtle and only medium weight. JR18, issued June 2018 — 10 months ago

Not so clear in terms of composition, blind tasting says it is not typical Sangiovese.
Example of organic wine before it became a mainstream. Very good balance of berries and seems like it was aging in oak 3 years. “I make Sangiovese, the rest are making coke” popular saying of the wine maker 😊 — 6 years ago
95 Riserva Wow! Just an amazing wine from an original OWC that I purchased on release. Dried cherry and strawberry with floral notes, very Burgundian with a feminine style. Great structure with chewy tannins. I have always said that there is no Brunello that can match Soldera and the 95 is an exceptional vintage for Soldera. — 9 years ago
