The nose of apples and peaches continues to the palette. This Chardonnay is clean, crisp and balance and paired great with our meal. — 8 years ago

Wow!
45 yr old California Cab that is simply sublime! Old school acidity 12%, to preserve the lovely mature fruit and forest floor notes. Started out at 49 degrees and let it get air to accelerate the development from reduction to full expression of lovely Claret style Cab glory!

Medium red hue with perhaps a hint of orange. The nose is a very pleasant and inviting dark red fruit with tar, cedar, tobacco, spice, and a hint of eucalyptus. Red and cassis flavors, tar and spice flavored on the palate. Medium length finish at the most which ends with with moderate mouth coating tannins that dominate at the end. Slightly more oxidized on the second day. Paired nicely with braised beef short ribs in red wine; which also help subdue the tannins. Decent wine for the money but not as good as the (similarly aged) 2000 Pio Cesare Oranato. — 9 years ago

Fascinating side by side with the Pio Cesare ornato 2000. This had an unusual amount of sweet cherry fruit and was a new world bright contrast to the pio cesare. I really enjoyed this. The ornato is supposed to be more new world but it was very old world to me in contrast to the la spinetta barbaresco. — 7 years ago

A perfect follow up to Pio Cesare. It really makes sense tasting them side by side to feel the difference of masculine Barolo and feminine Barbaresco. Luscious black plums, white pepper and roses... — 8 years ago

Funny how after a full tasting of primarily California stuff this acidity really shines on this single vineyard barbera. Fantastic. — 9 years ago

Refined Barolo! At 2008 I hope that's not an oxymoron! Dry and savoury but also silky. Preferred the Pio Cesare. — 9 years ago
