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 — 10 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. — 11 years ago

Friuli Colli Orientali Friulano 2014

A terrific example of a friulano, this wine has awesome aromatics, great acidity, and wonderful balance. Hard to find anything that competes with a northern Italian white. Fantastic! — 10 years ago

I had this one too!! Acidic and tart (is that the same thing?) and didn't suffer too much from being drunk out of a crappy glass.

Priorat Gratallops Partida Bellivisos Grenache 2008

Nice find @Andrew Yandell! Started out soft with dark fruits and garrigue accents, then its bones started to show - mineral, nice build, and more complexity. Balanced and delicious from the first drop to the last. — 11 years ago
