Always like badly turned. A lot of apples, pears and some other elements on the nose. Somewhat the same on taste with a nice finish. — 8 months ago

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 🤓. — 3 years ago

Barolo Nebbiolo 2013

Wonderful plums and dark fruits with a hint of leather on the palate and nose. Enjoyed it with an eggplant-sun dried tomato pasta and chicken sautéed in an Italian odori base. Fabuloso! — 9 years ago

Let’s qualify this statement by saying that I’m not a wine connoisseur. That said, I really enjoyed this wine. Not overly sweet and smooth.. — 3 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 — 5 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
