Terroir Al Límit

Vintage Selection Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

Loved this wine. Very fruity on the open, let it sit for an hour or so and that mid-Napa terroir is amazing. Drinks like a wine al it's own.. — 9 years ago

Dei bei fruttini rossi danno il benvenuto al naso svelando il varietale del vitigno, poi il terroir viene fuori e piano piano prende il sopravvento ed il vino acquista una struttura importante pur non perdendo in bevibilita'. Buono

Forlorn Hope

Al Frediani Vineyard Valdiguié 2012

Wow! Hard to believe this is a California wine. Major win for terroir here. Juice obviously coming from old vines that are respected completely in farming practice and transparent winemaking hands. Minerals are beautiful in this with a nice complexity and very well balanced fruit. Reminds me of cru Beaujolais and light terroir driven CdR blended. I feel privileged to have a few bottles and privileged to have this vision happening here in California! 👍🏼 — 9 years ago

Guado al Tasso Bolgheri Superiore Red Bordeaux Blend 2008

2008 is early in this wine's optimal window. Drinking beautifully with years to go. Here's what I tasted: lavender, dark cherry, chocolate, and coffee. This wine has the best components of Bordeaux varietals combined with the place notes of Italian terroir. Food friendly with structure, what's not to like? — 9 years ago

Riserva Villa Al Cortile Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2007

A great example of why Brunellos are loved so much - great terroir and lingering aromas make this a beautiful wine to drink. Easily can be kept laying down for another 7-8 years. — 9 years ago
