Absolutely a beautiful expression of Brunello! — 18 days ago
Blinded, I thought this was a Left Bank Bordeaux. I’m useless with Bordeaux blends. Felt Cab-dominated with the obvious pyrazine notes. Vintage-wise, I was going between 2015 and 2018, so not far off. Youth and ripeness were the clues. Wine-wise, not exactly what I like but I thought it was solid. Plummy fruit, herbs, wood, earth, and some underlying minerality. — a month ago
Sensational fruit forward, full bodied cab blend. Short decant; drank with steak and saffron risotto. — 6 days ago
Tannic forward and bold. Ruffino. Like Ruffalo in Poor Things, “shuck, chuck and bubble.” — 16 days ago

The absolute top of what Sangiovese in Montalcino can produce together with Soldera. Pure delineated red fruit with the searing fine tannins at the back palate. It will keep for some much longer and will be interesting to taste with softer tannins. But absolutely great now. — 2 days ago
