Dry muscat corse. Grassy but with notes of honey, lemon, and herbs. — 8 years ago
Bright red fruits and not too tart, not too sweet. Lovely gravelly and earthy undertones along with dried herbs and a clean, crisp finish. More complex than some- Pair it with some aged Parmesan and you will be in Lambrusco heaven! — 8 years ago

Croc di Febo Amore Mio Vin Nobile di Montepulciano Reserva 2010
90 pts I need to drink more of this Sangiovese DOCG full stop.
This organic one is only made in the best vintages and is pure pleasure. Aged 2 years in French barriques and 1 in cement, it does needs an hour to open and then has super velvety tannins. The nose freely gives cherry, balsamic and smoky dark chocolate. The palate is congruent, full yet mouth watering, coasting into a full long finish.
Tremendously enjoyable, heart warming and a most definite repeat .

Wrapping my head around this one. Co-fermented Sangiovese and Syrah. Had this two years ago while visiting the winery and honestly had forgotten what it was all about. It's surely intriguing. Soaked fruit, gamey, and chewy. — 9 years ago

Wine spectator says #69 of top 100 of 2014.
A burly, brambly red, underscored by tarry smoke and underbrush notes, offering flavors of blackberry coulis, herb-marinated black olive, grilled mushroom and ground spice. This shows muscle that recommends it to short-term cellaring, made accessible by integration and balance. Drink now through 2024. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. #69 – 91 points — 7 years ago

Excellent! Well balanced. Chocolate, vanilla, honey. — 8 years ago
This is an amazing wine and it is one of my favorite ones to bring to dinners. It is robust tannic fairly big and opens very quickly. As a cousin to the zinfandel it shows as it is extremely drinkable despite it's large tannic quality. Elements of black fruit and pepper remind me of both the zinfandel and the Shiraz. Anyone familiar Shirah from the Rhone Valley should definitely give this one a try. The only thing I will say is that I enjoy it with friends and less you can finish the bottle by yourself. It dies fairly quickly. — 9 years ago
