Stunning Beaujolais. On the riper side but with great complexity. On the nose crushed blackberry and cherry with crunchy minerals and cocoa powder. Soft prickly tannin with fresh acidity that begs for another sip. Stunning with food. — 2 years ago
Fantastic value. Dusty herbal crushed strawberries on the nose. Soft tannin and fresh acidity, great food wine. — 3 years ago
Excellent Riesling. Flinty mineral nose with hints of lemon peel. Palate is electric with a round rich texture. Beautiful texture. The age really created a rounder palate with lots of balance that paired wonderfully with delicate white fish sashimi — 8 months ago
Sangiovese as it’s finest. So much structure and finesse. Super food friendly. Concentrated cherry extract with balsamic and herbs on the nose with hints of baking spices. Anise and black pepper. Amazing length and finish — 2 years ago
Big rich pinot with some finesse however very heavy handed on the new oak. First note is vanilla. Like bottle of vanilla extract vanilla. Lots of beautiful pinot character is hidden underneath the oak. Of course this is super young but I feel like the other bottlings are lighter on the oak usage. Harping on this but I was slightly disappointed. Not bad whatsoever but my expectations were a lot higher for this. — 3 years ago
Dusty cherry, strawberry and candied orange on the nose. Bricky, and leathery notes with savory herbs come through after it opens up. Fresh acidity and some tart red fruits on the palate. Excellent wine. — a year ago
Benchmark Sangiovese. Brilliant red fruit on the nose, dusty cherry and balsamic strawberry. Mouthwatering acidity and long finish. — a year ago
Brooding dark fruit, cocoa powder and a hint of balsamic on the nose. Great acidity and length. Showing Tuscan terrior with Bordeaux varieties exceptionally. Bravo 👌 — 2 years ago
Super fun skin contact (orange) wine from Sicily. Toasted nuts and burnt orange zest explode out of the glass. On the palate, prickly tannin zesty acidity and a long complex finish. Super fun getting lots of oxidized notes from these skin contact bottles. Really pairs with a lot of foods in particular spicy ‘nduja pizza 🤌👌 — 3 years ago

Dark black fruit, still fresh acidity but on the more screwy black fruit with some tart red in the background. As it opens the oak takes over a bit but creates a lovely structured mouth feel and bouquet. Cedar, pencil shavings, anise, tobacco room. Really dynamic red — a month ago
