Rocca delle Macìe

Riserva Famiglia Zingarelli Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2016

Fantastic Chianti! Dusty, earthy, expressive, full body. What else? Dark fruit carried by notes of leather, cigar box. Crazy, all that for a Chianti, how is that possible 🤓. — 4 years ago

Riserva Bricco delle Viole Barolo Nebbiolo 2011

One of the best wines I’ve had in my life. Truly spectacular. All the things were there. Structure, balance, the fruits of Barolo, all of it. No sense in going over it. Memorable to say the least — 6 years ago

Il Valtenesi Da Uve Groppello 2013

Very interesting. Super dark but very bright. Lots of juicy acidity and jammy. Not very tannic, medium to light bodied but with a lot of up-front savoriness. Strawberries, unripe blackberry, even some citrus peel, prune, some blue ballpoint pen, and funkiness. From Shawn's. — 10 years ago

Богатый, плотный аромат: сладкая черешня, горький шоколад, морённое дерево, пыль, перец. Полное тело, слегка сладковатое, во вкусе спелая слива, мёд, стружка горького шоколада, известь. Идеальный баланс. 17,5/20
