Very close to my idea of a desert island wine. At 13% it has more smooth edges but that lovely thread of acidity common to its more expensive & jagged Vallana cousins. Dark red fruits, violets, tree bark. Juicy too, the tannins are pretty integrated. Skurnik importer. — 6 years ago

A bit of funk, ligh bodied, but more depth than just juice. A good freshness, and energetic. Lovely — 5 years ago

Deep red purple. Huge red fruit explosion on the on the nose and pallet at first. Nice counterbalance with earthiness and acidity. Some tobacco towards the end. This is bold and savory with round but firm tannings. Time has ironed out the nuances and evolved it into a sleek libation. — 6 years ago
A nice rose. Refreshing, but not too tart — 7 years ago

Boca DOC 2010 Azienda Agricola Terrini. Nebbiolo, Vespolina e Uva rara. Three years in oak barrels. I had it with ravioli al plin with butter and black truffles (white not in season), culatello with grissini, and toma, with mom and dad. Good potential from Alto Piemonte — 8 years ago
Very surprised that I enjoyed this sweet Italian red. Not too sweet like American sweet reds. Lovely — 9 years ago
