Giuseppe Rinaldi

Brunate - Le Coste Barolo Nebbiolo 2001

Started out a little funky with a slight curry and old furniture but started to blow off and developed into a classic Barolo with dried cherry, Rosemary, tobacco and rose petal. Still a baby and needs more time. I am a big fan of this producer! — 11 years ago

This is a lot of wine for the $$. Lovely rose petal aromas. Delicious. Dark fruit balanced by classic Barolo bitterness. — 11 years ago

Tasting fantastic right now, bravo Jamie! Perfectly balanced fruit, tannin and acidity #ipob maybe some stem inclusion? Cherry, crushed rocks, sandalwood, spice, velvety tannins, fresh acidity. — 12 years ago

Domaine de la Côte

Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2012

Light purple with hints of orange and brown. Medium-light body. Opened slightly tightly with notes of cola, earth, and bark. Some air (2 hours) revealed a rose-petal, cherry skin nose, and a lovely jammy palate. The medium to high acidity balances it very nicely. Some earth remained throughout. Very nice - recommended! — 11 years ago

@Mark Bright was this the "normal" Cote Rotie or the Cote Brune?

Giacomo Conterno

Riserva Monfortino Barolo Nebbiolo 1982

Dried red fruits, sour cherry, balsamic, rose petal, camphor and saddle leather, very sweet on the palate and coats your tongue with polished tannins and nice acidity, very nice vintage for Monfortino. — 12 years ago
