The best kind of Riesling. Not too sweet but has floral notes. And I like the twist cap so it stays fresher. — 10 years ago
Giovanna Morganti: Podere Le Boncie. She's a fine and set apart winemaker in San Felice/Castelnuovo Berardenga. Her house is the cellar, her mystic garden the vineyard where she does home-grown her own sangiovese grapes and few others local vine variety (mammolo foglia-tonda colorino canaiolo) allowed in the Chianti Classico Appellation, with such a filial piety and discipline as they were kids in a kindergarden. "Le Trame" is the name of her A rated eldest child, a magnificent utterance of Tuscany through the wine. Here's instead, her declassified sangiovese under the IGT umbrella (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) called simply, 5 - with a touch of self-irony - which in terms of grades at the School would be C or D. I do adore this "slacker" and strapping "5" for the harshness sour inborn at the wine, a spontaneous expression of a very acidic and stoney soil too! — 10 years ago

By the first time since I saw Cerretalto the vineyard with my eyes, I felt in love with the wine: a mystic core which pour out from that ferrous almost mulberry soil brushed by a gentle breeze that blow through the hills of Val d'Orcia; sober, clear, severe, tidy wine a generous and enduring expression of that certain land. — 11 years ago

Funky, dirty, meaty nose, drinking stones of the earth. Purple and black fruit from some overgrown long forgotten mystic garden. Extended finish like another round of applause. — 10 years ago
Almost a perfect sangiovese rosè by Il Palazzino from Monti in Chianti, one of my favorite vineyards around, such a mystic spot! Fruity crisp choice and... finished too quickly! — 10 years ago
This is the Beerenauslese. Had the Spat 76 as well and the difference is sticking alto ugh there is a similar profile and backbone. A very intriguing and mystic tea like nose, melted with quince jam, cinnamon and confit orange peel. A lifetime experience — 10 years ago

Killer saison that focuses on the varying effects of yeast versus hops or malt. The latter two remain constant. — 11 years ago
