Lighter alpine neb- reddish/ brown- wonderful nose. What I love about it most is this really pleasant sour cherry thing going on. Fruity with some nice acidity. Lightly tannic. Love it. Thanks, brother — 6 years ago

Grands Échézeaux Pinot Noir 2018

To celebrate my 9,000 reviews on vivino, here is a beautiful Pinot Noir.

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Strong fruity nose with bing cherries, raspberries, sweet strawberries, spices, oak, vanilla, licorice, chocolates, tobacco, earth and black pepper.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry and fruity on the palate with blueberries, black cherries, light earth, herbs, spices, vanilla, cedar, black pepper, light cola, dark coffee and licorice. black pepper.

Medium plus in finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This Pinot Noir from Burgundy is already drinking very nicely, but still extremely young. Well balanced and smooth with nice complexity and mouthfeel.

I had it blind right out of the bottle. That was a nice surprise. I called 2018 Burgundy Pinot Noir, but I did not see this kind of bottle coming... What a great experience to blind taste such an iconic wine.

There is always an aura when drinking these kind of wines, but drinking them blind, gives you a perspective that might be missed otherwise.

Needed 2 hours in the decanter to open up properly, and bring more complexity. Much better once it opens up.

Robert Parker 94 points.

I had an older vintage of this wine a year ago, and it is such a different wine. Will continue to age nicely in the next 30 to 40 years.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$2,500.

Conti Consantani

Brunello Di Montalcino 2013

From half bottle. Aromas of leather loam and a little plum but essentially very savoury with fine sandy tannins. Oak is there but not overbearing. Loved the wine and a great accompaniment to Pork Belly. Met the owner and chef Tony Percuoco. A great restaurant and a regular for us when visiting Brisbane. His 2 brothers run the equally good Fellinis on the Gold Coast and Armando is the chef and owner of Buon Ricordo one of Sydney’s best Italian restaurants. All 3 highly recommended. — 5 years ago

My favorite wine! Sweet and smooth, reminds me of Welch’s grape juice — 6 years ago

Conti Sertoli Salis

Inferno Valtellina Superiore Nebbiolo 2012

This takes some time to open up. Once it does, this light-colored gives up delicate scents of cracked stones, mossy forest underbrush, and wild cherry. Lean but flavorful, with lithe flavors of crisp cherry and rock dust. Loads of acids and a bit of fine-grained tannin on the structural side. Will go nicely with the risotto I just finished and is quietly resting for a few minutes! — 6 years ago

Conti Torraiolo

Toscana Sangiovese 2015

Great for drinking with saucy red dinners. It's fruity and rich to balance well seasoned (read: garlicky) sauces, but I wouldn't put it up against anything truly spicy. A good staple Italian red. — 4 years ago

Conti Sertoli Salis

Grumello Valtellina Superiore Nebbiolo 2012

This is a terrific and classic Valtellina. Precise cherry fruit embellished with peat smoke and stony minerality. Concentrated flavors yet in a lighter, lifted style. Great acidity and such fine-grained tannin. — 5 years ago
