Barolo Nebbiolo 2016

Franco Serra Barolo DOCG 2016: Medium plus acidity. Medium tannins. Red fruits. Dried herbs. Earth. Leather. Tobacco. Long, silky smooth finish. This young Barolo was a pleasant surprise as my expectations were low (due to its age) however I was very wrong. It had great intense aromas & flavors, reflecting the characteristics of a finer quality wine. For me, it was a definite crowd pleaser with an amazing QPR! Cheers🍷 — 4 years ago

Eggo Franco Cabernet Franc 2016

Great cab franc from Uco, if you are into that style. Fruity (no oak whatsoever), but certainly not sweet or syrupy. Fairly acidic, and with a distinct mineral taste, like chalk or graphite. Lighter bodied than a cab sauvignon or a malbec (lighter colors, etc.) But still a powerful wine. — 7 years ago

Canalicchio Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2015

No formal notes. Sweet mix of black/red fruit, ripe yet assertive tannins, nice mid-palate juice, leathery. Structured and quiet now, shows potential. — 5 years ago

Vignammare Grillo 2017

Interesting twist on the typical ‘natural’ wine style. Apple notes are muted and instead we get tons of lemon, some nuttiness, and a very long salty finish. Only small gripe is the alcohol. A tad too aggressive for 11.5%. — 7 years ago
