Tommasi

Poggio al Tufo Rompicollo Maremma Toscana Sangiovese Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2021

2021 vintage.
Sangiovese 60 % and Cabernet Sauvignon 40 % from Pitigliano estate in Maremma, Tuscany with a southwest exposure.
Owned by Tommasi family since 1997.
Rompicolla is ‘breakneck’ but means tremendously steep and slippery slope…a risky adventure.
Soils are deep in volcanic tuff.
Stainless steel ferment and matured 1 year in 65 HL Slavonian oak casks.
Red cherries, raspberries, savoury spice, and floral.
Medium bodied but fresh and clean on the finish.
This wine loves food ….and I appreciate that.

Happy Birthday to me....

Pretty much at the top of my scale. Not a man for words right now after finishing my first day as a 50-year old. Grateful for my family, health, and my love and aptitude for my work.

Hubby had this one without me (!!). A cheap Italian blend for $13 but its quite delicious and complex. Interesting cider donut spice with cocoa and vanilla but also some basil and nutmeg. It’s a wild ride. Jealous that I missed it. — 9 months ago

Work has been hectic. Needed some me time tonight. F it (or no, F is also very good, but in this case I "I" 'd it. I I'd it. Id it? Oh F it you know what I mean!!!) Orin Swift letter (location) bottles are some of the best value bottles out there. Italy doesn't disappoint - $16 well-spent. Other me time highlights tonight: sushi, massage w/ a focus on occipitalis (oh yes....), my new fav JT jam on the radio, and being giddy about Chelsea's new Netflix show premier tonight. Oh, and this post was brought to you by the letter I — 11 years ago

Always enjoy reading your post. I'm dying to know what you thought of Chelsea's new show?

Do u like her too? She is hysterical. Loved Chris Martin's performance, loved the monologue, was a little segmented thereafter, but I'm sure she will get in her groove. I thought the Cheslea Does shows were solid

She is hysterical . I tend to agree with you. A little more insight. I thought Chris Martin's performance was excellent...think Drew saved it at the end. It felt a little lost to me. I'll report back after watching the second episode later today.
