Big wine, ready to drink. Beautiful color with no sign of oxidation at the edges. Plenty of mature fruit forward after open for 20 minutes. Tannic backbone evident and dissipates slowly.
Dark cherry emerges after 45 minutes with plenty of spice.
Love it! Elisabetta Fanetti is carrying on the the legacy of great wines produced by her father...

Absolutely baller Super Tuscan. Opulent nose, with a palate that makes you want more. Rich black sun soaked fruit with deep tobacco flavor. While still young and a little tannic, time is on its side with a couple of decades of drinkiblity.  — 4 years ago

Pretty stunning stuff. I can see why people call it the Lafite of Tuscany. Polished but definitely old world. Beautiful nose of pencil lead, cassis and tarry underbrush. Dark, deep, tannic and complex. Needs time and lots of it — 4 years ago

Based on a recommendation by our local wine steward at QFC ( @Gilbert Lara Jr ) , we found it to be quite pleasant. Tight on opening, but after a couple hours it came out with some complex Italian notes. Terroir, oak and dark berries. A great little wine and we'd love a half case. Thank you Gil! — 9 years ago

Such a hard wine to get hold of this was
Not necessarily expensive, but it has such a long story behind that i can't even start
If you know Elisabetta Foradori this guy, mr Zierock, was her first husband and probably not a well mannered either
He was a strong biodynamic Steiner believer for my understanding and i truly thought this wine was going to be just off for some silly reason
On the other hand i find still a crisp fruit, there definitely been skin contact, such a chalky mineral that emphasises the ginger, the smokiness, the honeycomb and the very long after taste
Better when room temperature
I just cant believe that the legend of the Alps mountains has actually delivered so well
Just hope we could all think twice before putting anything else than fermented grape juice into winemaking
A very special bottle i had been holding on for such a long time..a real treasure..exciting emotion!! — 4 years ago
