This is it: my favorite wine of the year (so far). Wonderfully oaky but balanced. Our server's suggestion. Now, if I could only find an importer. Summer 2013, Pisa. — 11 years ago

2001 Le Macchiole Messorio Merlot. Compared this wine to the '01 Casanova di Neri Cerretalto Brunello Sangiovese at the lunch which Ash prepared at the house. By a small margin, this wine was our fave of the two. Sweet fruit on the nose, but balanced, and a nice mouthfeel with a pleasant amount of tannins. We really enjoyed how balanced and delicious this wine was. — 8 years ago
Awesome Chianti. Vintner only makes 10,000 bottles a year so you have to go to the winery to buy it. — 9 years ago

Really nice Brunello from a very small producer. 45 euro at the winery and it compares very favorably to the nearby Casanova de Neri. — 7 years ago
