Adriano Marco e Vittoro 2016 Basarin Barbaresco WE96 WS94 $27.99 — 6 years ago
Low yields in Northern Rhône 2013, but the quality of the fruit is prevalent here. Structured and well-integrated fine grained tannins at the five year mark. The nose explodes out of the glass with finesse and doused complexities. Definitive Syrah nuances of black raspberries, black plums, black olives, fresh cut violets, cracked black pepper, Indian spices, grilled and smoked meats, and stone dust. Light weight but packs a continuous release of flavors. Nose and palate changes from fruit to floral to spicy to meaty. As you move to different areas and rooms the wine changes. The more air it gets, the more meat starts hanging out. Complex indeed for a $20 bottle. Great showing. — 7 years ago


Not a lot of fruit, but a ton of minerality and some nice texture. — 9 years ago
One of a kind Grillo. Went away for a week with a half a bottle left in fridge. Came home and it was still fantastic if not deeper in flavour and more balanced. Serious stuff. Big structure. Tastes of the coast of Sicily. 2011 vintage — 10 years ago
A little harsh but a good harsh. Fruity/warty taste and smell. Danie isn't a fan. — 11 years ago
Juicy raspberry and blackberry with medium tannins and mid acidity easy to like meat aromas after decanting. — 13 years ago
1st time to drink Marco Felluga’s reds. Loved the balance of the fruit and how approachable it was to drink. Quite impressed!! — 6 years ago
Unusual aromatic nose and fresh, dry, taste. Slightly confusing but equally satisfying. — 7 years ago
Ohhhh texture!!! — 8 years ago
Amazingly rich with delicate bubbles. Full of ripe pear, apple pastry, creme brûlée, toffee, and a touch of cheese rind. The acid is present enough to offset the richness. This is a tête I would buy again! — 8 years ago
Very reductive — 9 years ago
10 years on tasting. Dark and restrained. Clearly good stuff but very cold-blooded. All the class you'd like but completely not there yet. Real quality here — 10 years ago

Fiiiinalllyyy!!!! I got the chance to taste it! And OMG, it just has that perfect harmony! And the light style with those red fruits... Perfect!

It's LOVE!!! Once again 60% Pinot Noir!!! — 12 years ago
Loved this wine! So complex. Brioche, nutty, high acidity. — 5 years ago
mmmm. started out super funky, dark juicy fruit, milky. as it sat for a minute it warmed up and got more tannic and chewy. say medium tannin, balanced by medium acids and dryness. definitely bolder but not overwhelmingly so. super enjoyable. i love seb david ❤️ — 6 years ago

Looooooved this. So bouncy and so pine-y! I drank it cold, like past the point of chilled, because no wine fridge or central air, and I thought it was perfect that way? — 7 years ago
Had this at mockingbird in Oakland. Loved it. Some floral notes also slightly peppery. Fairly full bodied — 8 years ago
Clean, peppery, fresh — 8 years ago
Very well-balanced. But I wish it was a bit fuller-bodied. Sort of like how it's cool to see a gymnast standing one footed on the beam, but would be far more impressive to see an Hillary do it.

-UPDATE: this thing opened up really nicely over an hour or so (I was distracted from my drinking, usually it's all gone quicker than that). — 10 years ago
Stinky, reductive, needs lots of air & time to breath. Funky cab franc which many won't like. — 10 years ago
nice & proudly held up after the Dom — 12 years ago

Deep color, great structure and tannins. A very good red wine not well known but one of my favorites. — 3 years ago
