Thick as Thieves
Levings Yarra Valley Pinot Noir 2017
First decent sunshine in the garden
Weekend is on early this week
Got delivered a 6 pack split between 2017 and 2016 yesterday
This '17 is delicious!!
It reminds me a lot of a sangiovese from Radda or Castelnuovo Berardenga or even a northern brunello. Vibrant, mineral, but supported by strong shoulders that you can't notice much at this stage. Neat and precise are the violet,tobacco and licorice.
Spices, leather and cola. The fruit is between a blood orange and a raspberry. I dare to say it recalls a Soldera's Brunello. Long, young and enjoyable from now and many years ahead. — 4 years ago
Mind though I didn't compared sangovese and pinot, but specific sangiovese from specific areas with this specific pinot. Many producers in Tuscany are known to be producing wines that resemble a Burgundy, but the play in your mouth is slightly different. Instead of fascinate you with the array of scents, smooth touch and a never ending elegant after-taste some wines IMO they deliver a juiciness when they enter and then in the mid palate they explode and spread everywhere with a long powerful after-taste. Well I reckon this T&T pinot noir had that factor that I find in many Tuscan wines, specifically in sangiovese from Radda, Castelnuovo(sometines) and Montosoli(northern area of Montalcino); other wines are like that(Kurni, Habemus...) but having ancestors from the Chianti area shifts me easily on that vision.
I don't think you need to move anything around in your cellar😄, but you got curious on what you would have done in regards🤗. Cheers mate!🙏

La Sorpresa Castelnuovo Berardenga Trebbiano-Malvasia Blend 2013
Yet another Italian producer of natural wine knocking it out of the park. A polite kind of funk, smoke, resinous, dried apricots, loaminess, with a floral tinged finish that lingers pleasantly — 7 years ago

Colonia Gran Selezione Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2010
Serious Sangiovese that needs time but holy moly. Tobacco and weird teas, earth, and some tart berries/cherries. Cellar forever and pop it when you're high on medical marijuana. — 8 years ago
Podere le Boncie (Giovanna Morganti)
5 Toscana Ciliegiolo Blend 2012
Giovanna Morganti: Podere Le Boncie. She's a fine and set apart winemaker in San Felice/Castelnuovo Berardenga. Her house is the cellar, her mystic garden the vineyard where she does home-grown her own sangiovese grapes and few others local vine variety (mammolo foglia-tonda colorino canaiolo) allowed in the Chianti Classico Appellation, with such a filial piety and discipline as they were kids in a kindergarden. "Le Trame" is the name of her A rated eldest child, a magnificent utterance of Tuscany through the wine. Here's instead, her declassified sangiovese under the IGT umbrella (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) called simply, 5 - with a touch of self-irony - which in terms of grades at the School would be C or D. I do adore this "slacker" and strapping "5" for the harshness sour inborn at the wine, a spontaneous expression of a very acidic and stoney soil too! — 9 years ago
Terredavino
Barolo Chinato Nebbiolo
First taste of a completely new category to me. In Castelnuovo Berardenga. After dinner with Chris/Therese Joe/Kathy. Mild almost amber color. Very aromatic nose of cardamom cinnamon five spice. Surprisingly light palate on first contact but heat does come through with a lingering earthy finish. Interesting! 16.5 ABV. — 2 years ago

Castello Di Bossi Corbaia Toscana IGT Sangiovese 2008
Definitely improved after about 30 minutes to an hour after opening. At first did not find it that that compelling but later was more impressed - silky smooth and complex. — 8 years ago

Castello Di Bossi Chianti Classico Sangiovese 2007
Castello do Bossi. Nice mellow Chianti. A little on the sweet side. The 2007 is smooth and fruit forward. A very lite nose. Perhaps a little past it's prime. — 8 years ago
