Fattoria Poggio di Sotto

Rosso di Montalcino Sangiovese 2019

First bottle of a half case we bought at the domaine in 2021. Definitely will be better in a few years but nice to try one on the earlier side. What they say is true - this is really easily Brunello level. At this point the nose isn’t giving a ton, but there is great depth of fruit and earth on the palate. This hits in several more parts of the mouth than most wines and the finish goes on for quite a while. Medium plus tannins and acid which should balance out a bit with some more age.

Opened the bottle 5 hours prior to service and then decanted for 2. Real candidate to be 9.5+ in a few years.

Il Rosé di Casanova Prugnolo Gentile - Sangiovese Rosé Blend

Not too many Sangiovese roses in my life. This is good. As it warms it gets much more earthy and vegetal. A lot of red watermelon, but overall savory. Pretty great with bbq. I’m guessing not so great with lighter fare or to crush over an afternoon. — 5 months ago

La Stoppa

Trebbiolo Rosso Barbera Bonarda 2017

Barbera & Bonarda blend from an Emilia Romagno maker. I love this style- gave a good 45+ min decant. Imagine the Bonarda offsets the Barbera fruitiness. Keeps a taut line btw vegetal acidity & that earthy fruitiness. Natural maker of some serious orange wines. 13% alcohol. Didn’t hurt that we drank at sunset, on the Hudson River at home. — 6 years ago

Allegracore Etna Rosso DOC Nerello Mascalese-Nerello Cappuccio Blend 2013

Light body and very "Pinot Noir" like. Bright red cherry and strawberry flavors. Mild tannins and light oak. Hint of smoke. Refreshing. Chill it a bit below cellar temp. Great story about the winery. A Mt. Etna lava flow just went around them 30 years ago. — 9 years ago

Le Macchiole

Bolgheri Rosso SuperTuscan Blend 2017

This is a very punchy, rich wine, likely a blend of Sangiovese with some bordeaux cépages like Cabernet. Actually works very well with rich food and has enough acidity and balance. Not our prime stuff in style but honestly was really good. — 4 months ago

Le Macchiole Bolgheri Rosso blend always over delivers for the price.
Merlot, Cab Franc, Cab Sauvignon and sometimes Syrah added to the blend.
Absolutely a favourite wine.

I guessed right for the Cabs then. I agree at these price points there is not much at this quality ! Do recommend any other of their wines ? Thank you Jamie !

Bianco is Chardonnay with a touch of Sauvignon Blanc.
Scrio is Syrah….very tasty.
And Paleo is Cabernet Franc.
All are age worthy and will reward your patience..

Pithos Rosso Vittoria Nero d'Avola Frappato 2020

Popped in poured; no formal notes. The 2020 Pithos Rosso is, to my palate, a lovely Sicilian alternative to Beaujolais. Delicious, refreshingly fruity and just a touch wild. Sufficient structure to provide enjoyment for the near term, but I would just as well drink now. I really enjoy these wines.  — 6 months ago
