the best wine made in my home valley. It uses the same process as Amarone but it is smoother and fresher without loosing complex structure and strong cherry and caramel — 7 years ago
Wonderful. Looks as light as good burgundy... Drinks like Nebbiolo should. Coats the palate with vanilla, strawberry rhubarb, and a surprising acid-tannin balance. Outstanding. I just want more! — 8 years ago
Very smooth finish, fruity with a bit of vanilla — 9 years ago

Rutabaga and charcoal and hen of the woods and cherry garcia. Yeah there is a little VA but it’s not intrusive. Maybe more wild than some of their other stuff but still that mountain freshness — 3 years ago

It tastes like Jessica Rabbits shitbox, I’m hiding a semi in an open plan restaurant. THANKS Dirupi for your tremendous wine, it’s really helped my social anxiety! — 10 months ago
Fresh late season cherries, some raspberries and mulberries. Some spice, it started out roses, some violets, and the menthol note is grown big. Tannins, very woody-flavored tannins, along the roof of the mouth. Tannins recede and cherries grow over a few hours. It’s a light, elegant wine in the prime of its life. It was like $28. I’d hold on to a lot more of it. I love nebbiolo. Drank it watching the chi. — 4 years ago
