When does a grape taste like a cherry? When it's fresh Sangiovese from Chianti. This one is cherries galore, with a pleasant whisper of funk showing up with extended air. $15 never tasted so good. — 10 years ago

Think Bordeaux Blanc with a twist. 100 year old semillon vines, minimal/no SO2 additions. All texture and weight with a whisper of white flowers, yellow apple and touch of herbs. — 10 years ago

edging senility but so good right now, especially after 45 minutes of air, reveals earthy delights of wet potters' clay, dried basil, cedar, graphite shavings with an unexpected whisper of dark chocolate dust all wrapped up in a palate showing spice, with a unique balsamic & toast presence that slides to a lip smacking finish. — 11 years ago

Cool berry and a whisper of earthy funk. Fine firm tannins and a bit if cocoa on the finish. Sneaky acid. Drinks at or maybe above its price point. Glad I have more. — 12 years ago

Tar, whisper of cherries, Brett taint - the good kind not the pink leotard kind, still tastes vibrant. — 10 years ago

Really great Chardy! But a whisper of oak, decent malo and a great long finish. A great stand alone wine or perfect with a light dish. — 10 years ago

A tiny whisper of brett? Maybe. Maybe not. What matters here is a silky texture and an evolving and complex palate of flavors. A delicious and versatile wine. True to its place. Paired well with both pork and beef tonight. At 12.5 abv an almost dangerously easy bottle. Great to become with this producer. — 11 years ago

Dark color that is reflected in the nose and on the palate. The aromas of dried lemon and lemon sourdough predominate, but there is also a snippet of lemon verbena and jackfruit, dried apricots, pumpkin, dried mango, dried papaya and a Flemish red beer streak! The lemon and beer notes are evocative of a brew room after cleanup, but a honey note in a spring grove plants you firmly outside. Plenty of sunshine here, and tangerines in a basket with fresh bread. Medium to heavy mouthfeel, and blood orange, grapefruit, lemon drops, grapefruit pith, limestone and a dried grass and chalky lemon pith finish that is exemplary. A writhing, evolving spectacle that boasts the intermittent Apple cider vinegar whisper without offense. Tannins abound, along with lemoncello custard. — 11 years ago

Italy can do Summer of Riesling too. Acacia aged, super delicious and just a whisper of RS. — 12 years ago

Very good. Youthful, almost under developed. gorgeous strawberry and blackberry fruit. Very lifted. Mid palate as sexy as they come but lacking a whisper of definition compared to the two DRC Grand Ech's either side. Quibbling though..., clearly the best flight so far — 10 years ago

Straight delicious. Starting to pop open. Secondary notes starting to whisper a bit. Always a joy to drink this wine when it begins to open up. #lapaulee — 11 years ago

This was a perfect moment for this wine. My 1yr wedding anniversary, 10/06/2014. Ippolito 1996 Ripe Del Falco Riserva. Ripe tart cherry, figs and forest grace the stage and hints if cedar whisper in the background. Galioppo at its finest! — 11 years ago
