Really enjoyed this. Got it for my dad, who loves the stuff. Honey, raisins in a delicious, almost syrupy drink. Excellent finish to Christmas dinner — 5 days ago

Could have used a little more time. Rich fruit, some earth- reminded me of my Nonno’s cantina. Bit tannic still, but very nice with peposo. — 9 days ago

Pretty hefty neb; intense nose, gritty tannins and that cherry- like Nebbiolo flavor. Really good. — 16 days ago

Mohagany, leather, earth, tannins are fairly light, pleasing wine with a rich lasagna. Decanted for 3 hours. Good now, but would age a good deal longer. — 5 days ago

Not quite as much of the pure cherry of Tuscan Sangiovese, but you can taste it. Would I have known it was Sangiovese blind? Maybe. Little more bulk and backbone, less soft than a Chianti Classico. Very nice, though. I’d get it again — 11 days ago

Verdicchio is always great with fish. Had cod with a lemon/ wine/ butter sauce and this was good. Not the most memorable or expressive verdicchio I’ve had, but nice. Minerally, good acidity and subdued fruit. I find the ones from Metalica have less of that signature almond taste than those of Jesi. — 14 days ago

This $17 rose is very good. Not a whole lot of nose, but great acidity, peach/ melon and a full, bright finish. I really like it , especially for the price. I’ll get more for the summer! — 7 days ago
