Looks like peach nectar, with the lightest, looping bubbles in a loose bunch atop, becomes a petri sample of fruit fungus, then all clear to firework lacing and morning mist. Big wood notes, though not as toasty in parts, cigar box, funky softwood of dead forest fall, ripe for mushrooms. Lovely dried lemon peel, orange peel, and dried apricot in cigar boxes, live pineapple and pencil shavings in a clean attic. On the palate, yellow cherry, funky sour pineapple, lime-cedar, lemongrass, savory, dried okra, a drop of orange bitters, nose filling blood orange, and lemon oil for the duration. Fantastic nuances, amazing balance, woody depth. Just fine craftsmanship here, from the old school. — 6 years ago

Lovely pink salmon color, effervescent, loose bubbles. Aromas of delicate red fruit, and brioche. Flavors of strawberry and crisp green apples, but no sweetness and not yeasty. Very lovely brut rosé!! Definitely would recommend! — 7 years ago

Now that I have calmed down, Im drinking the other bottle of Amizetta from a few weeks ago. This cork is damaged by wine seepage and pressure, but not as bad as the cabernet bottle's cork. I still have not heard a word from the "fine people" at Amizetta. However, this Complexity is much better than the cab due to heat damage in shipping. Which was Amizetta's fault. However, it is sour, puckers my lip. Ill never buy from this company again. Only if Spencer calls me directly and apologizes will I buy from him again. For real though,
Color is dark, bouquet is blackberry pie and Red licorice. The initial palate - after a 30 min decant - is raspberry, blackberry, oak, and mild spice. The finish is fast and mildly dry. Drinks like a Merlot which is 40% of the blend. It does loose the sour beginning but it resurfaces on the finish after the decant. — 8 years ago

A puncheon of tropical punch punching you right in the face! Ripe pineapple and banana and a bit of wet socks. I've never smelt something so pungent from a Junmai. Semi-sweet but then it kinda wimps out with a loose backbone afterwards. Still thuroughly enjoyed but just felt it was flabby in a sake way. You know? — 9 years ago

Well, it's def not flat. The wine -- from a can -- pours up nice and frothy, retreating quickly to a frizzante status. The nose is beautiful and worthy of a picnic. Bright, fresh strawberry and cherry aromas dominate, with a touch of sage and earth. The flavors are ripe and sweet, with an earthy touch befitting a good rosé. Acidity is perfect, great for food pairing as well as sipping. The winemaker suggests you serve it very cold, and that will make it a great summertime wine. — 7 years ago

Domaine Lucci Gris Blanc 2015: Pinot Gris. Pinot Grigio. Same grape, right? Yes, but not yes. "Gris" typically indicates a wine made in a fleshier, more complex style than your basic striped down "crisp white wine." And this one is no exception to that loose rule. It's definteily not stipped down version of anything. It's the saignee (bled off) white juice of the crazy pink Gris Gris above, fermented in a combination of ceramic and oak. It's fleshy and textured and almost opulent, but with an underlying minerality that's there if you look for it. Dare we say it's sexy? Yes, we dare. — 9 years ago

Beautiful nose. Wow. Honeyed and so ripe but with incredible purity and detail. Tangerine and a hint of sponti. Beautiful minerals. A sense of depth. Wow. What a palate. Freak show. That acidity is LIT! 🔥🔥. Wow, such depth and elegance with super precision but also that loose vibe this wine always has. Lovely, long finish. Stunning. Holy sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit.

Prune nose. Nice dark color. A micro producer. They have trouble now to get grapes as money flows into Burgundy they loose out. Beautiful wine 🍷 could use another 3 years or so. Cherry 🍒 cranberry touch of lemon 🍋 zest and chalk / really well done / this is ‘handmade’. Blows Bize and Pavelot the apparent benchmarks for Savigny out of the water. Amitié wines online has these or Meritage in Encinitas and a bunch of Michelin Star restaurants in SF. You can’t go wrong if you like his traditional style. — 7 years ago

Smokey, dusky, smouldering red fruit

Light, lithe, possesses volcanicity - that sense of a wine that is airy like a pumice stone; Fine texture, it opens up to reveal a loose and fine structure.  — 9 years ago

Big fruit and loose leaf tea aroma pours out of the glass. Tropical hints. On the palette: pure, dark fruit. Some white pepper. Drinking great now and will improve with a little time. Love this wine. — 9 years ago
