Again a bottle to my liking. So guess that previous one was off. High in acids, tangerine fruits, classic bitters — 10 months ago

Magnificent super Tuscan. In the same class as Tignanello. Beautiful, ready to drink. Decant it if you can but it's fine to pop and pour, swirl and go! — 6 years ago
With scallops, octopus, crab, and later short ribs at an Italian restaurant. The glue has subsided, not rubbery, some fruit is coming out. But not special.
21 minutes later: The candied bacon came out, and it compliments the short rib very well. — 6 months ago

Cassis, flowers. On the “big” side but still light on its feet. Very woody. — 3 years ago
A great evening with three of them!!

Really good Bolgheri, great value. Refined and nicely arrayed palate of cocoa, chocolates and dark red fruit. The Syrah adds some oomph and structure. A yummy candied cherry quality and grippy tannins suggest additional cellar time could be rewarded. — 6 years ago
Certainly a great value. Very curious as to how this will open up later this afternoon and then tomorrow.  — 6 months ago
Incredible Barbera. — 9 months ago
Fabulous. Aged in the cellar until 2024. Could have even left longer perhaps. — 10 months ago
Crisp, lemon, burnt marshmallow and some minerality. — 2 years ago
Strong sharp almost acrylic smell followed by rich fruity aroma, plumb - oak - layered rich and thick. Later on almost like expensive tea with a complex and fragrant bouquet .
Taste is sharp at first with stringent dry tannic. Powerful and strong. Followed by fruit. Plumb, cherry, stone fruit. Crisp and refreshing. Cuts though the fat like a knife. And ends with a bitter sweetness that makes you want to take another sip.
Not as amazing as I remembered back in 2017 in Montepulciano. But good in its own way. Softened much more the 2nd day. Maybe I should decant for 5hrs next time. — 3 years ago

Even better 4 1/2 years after the first time I tried it. This wine/vintage over-performs. Comparable to some of the higher end riservas. — 5 months ago
