Riserva Il Falcone Castel del Monte Rosso 2009

Any wine that can shine from a plastic cup deserves extra kudos. Mistook for a Northern nebbiolo with its structure, detail, & balance, but the fruit is pure southern, pomegranate & black currants. Eye opener (esp for 30$ list). Want to re taste in proper stemware. I think 80% nero di trioa 20% montulpiciano — 9 years ago

Triusco Puglia IGT Primitivo 2001

2001 vintage. Garnet with hints of amber. Floral/blackberry nose. Rich velvety red fruit, off dry, slightly tart on the finish. Started at an hour and a half after opening, was still improving at three hours. Significant sediment, recommend decanting. — 10 years ago

Oddero

Rocche dei Rivera di Castiglione Barolo Nebbiolo

Despite being 18 years old it needed hours and hours of decanting and towards the end of the night it finally started coming around. Want to have it again in a few years with hours of decanting to see how it's matured. — 10 years ago

Took a while to open up...ok, quite a while. But when it did... wow!!! Big wine, nicely balanced with coffee, dark fruits and silky smooth

St. Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2009

Incredible. Smooth, perfect and just out of this world. From start to finish, this is a closer wine - on a date? This is your Mariano Rivera. Closing a sale? This is your triple axel perfect landing. Full bodied, mature red fruit notes with a wonderful finish. Seriously, this is why US passports have French in them. Get this and drink it! — 11 years ago

Is a"kick" to the tongue supposed to be a good thing?
