Cortona Syrah

Vintage 2020 | with this Italian Syrah that I served blind I fooled my wine friends, because they thought that the cherry fruitiness and rondeur was the equivalent of a Cru the Beaujolais. High acidity. And they also determined spicyness and pepper. — 12 days ago

Fragrant and fruity Syrah with earthly undertones. Nice hints of strawberry and blackberry, which were probably extra potent after 12 years. — 8 hours ago

Tenuta Sette Ponti

Crognolo Toscana Super Tuscan Blend 2019

In the heart of the Chianti lies Estate of Sette Ponti, 15 miles northwest of the city of Arezzo, past village of San Giustino Valdarno. Has 10% Merlot, aged in French Allier barriques, deep Ruby with red fruit aromas and floral notes. On the palate blackberry, plum and cherry flavors with blossom notes, spice and fine integrated tannins. Good balance, long finish ending with some oak and mineral tones. Nice! Will age a bit! Tasting well now! — 6 months ago

Tenimenti Luigi d'Alessandro (Manzano)

Borgo Cortona Syrah 2015

What a strange syrah from a wonderful town. Wooly Bully tannins! Dark cherry cola gives way to chocolate, nutmeg, maybe plum, and a bunch of barnyard funk. It's awesome! — 2 months ago
