Pèppoli Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2021

A delicious and smooth expression of Chianti Classico. Soft tannins, nice to drink on its own and also solid with a tomato pasta. — 4 months ago

Villa Antinori Toscana Pinot Bianco Blend 2020

you’d never think a sangiovese / merlot / cab sav / syrah mix at this price point would have so much life to it — 4 months ago

Bramasole Cortona Syrah 2020

Final wine from our tasting at Antinori just outside Florence in their state of the art facility. All 3 wines matured in French or Hungarian Barriques. Initial barnyard aromas which blew off to reveal florals like lavender and peony. Oak is perfectly balanced and does not intrude in any of the 3 wines tasted. This district is not traditional for Syrah (only since 2000) but suits it perfectly - sandy soils. More savoury and meaty than fruit driven. — 8 months ago

Albis Maipo Valley Red Blend

Smells vegetal - reminds me of some of the premium Rodney Strong Cabernets I used to taste at RS. Bell pepper, currant, and cherry on the nose. — a month ago

Solaia Annata Diversa Toscana Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc 2019

Strong perfume. The Cab Franc is definitely driving a more elegant and fragrant wine. This is a different than say a 2010. Well rounded and full of depth. Smokey and complex. I liked this very much but wouldn’t have thought it was a Solaia if tasting blind. — 2 months ago

Chianti Superiore Sangiovese Blend 2018

Medium ruby color; cherries, dried herbs, and black plums on the nose; high acidity; medium minus tannins; tastes like sour cherries, wet gravel, and cranberries with a long finish. Nellie likes it with the lemon chicken I made. I love it. — 9 months ago

Badia A Passignano Gran Selezione Chianti Classico Sangiovese 2001

Quite deep ruby , with a wide garnet rim, quite young looking. Dried herbs , smoked meat , red cherry, violets , liquorice and antique furniture polish notes . On the palate quite round and rich, sweet red fruits , with that herbal tinge , those liquorice and charcuterie notes also evident . This in fact still shows well a day later , still quite full and rich , with red plum and black cherry notes . Quite good acidity , with quite gritty tannins, balanced alcohol . Decent length . This is very good now though no rush , mature but will continue to show well for a while longer , from now over the next 5 years . Another T Wright Wine choice … see my De Fieuzal 1994 note — 4 months ago

Castello della Sala Cervaro della Sala Umbria Chardonnay Grechetto 2020

はちみつのように濃厚
白トリュフのタヤリンと合わせて。

> レモンオイル、バタークリーム、カリカリのパン、焼きたての生地、バニラビーンズの香りと、砕いたカキの殻の香りが対照的だ。ミネラルを含んだ果樹園の果実が酸味のあるメロンへと変化し、最後には可憐な花の香りが漂う。
2020年はありえないほど長く、軽く骨格のある余韻が続き、砂糖漬けの柑橘類のノートがアーモンド・カスタードによって豊かになる。シャルドネ92%とグレケット8%のこのブレンドは、ブルゴーニュの白ワインのブラインドテイスティングにぜひ出してみたい。
美しく仕上がっている。(エリック・ギド、ヴィナス誌、2022年11月)

Sabazio Rosso di Montepulciano Sangiovese Blend 2019

Definite dark cherry. My bottle was well balanced. Not too acidic or tannin forward. Would love to drink this again. I always do well with Montepulciano. — 8 months ago
