Surprising and unique. Much more earthy than other Taurasis I’ve tried. I think I like it. But also not sure. Need to try again. About $60. — 3 days ago

Quite nice. Though fairly balanced, the Chardonnay (30%) surprisingly seems the most dominant grape. For an Alto Adige white, on the richer long finish side. Would be good w some richer foods. — 7 months ago

My kind of wine. Well balanced, food friendly, 13.5% al. Medium tannins, tart plums or cherry. $20. Definitely buy again. — a year ago

Ok, but I’m disappointed. Seems past its due date. Maybe a bad bottle. Rich, cocoa, stewed cherries. Not well balanced. Nose a bit hot. 13.5% al. — a year ago

Excellent. My kind of wine. Well balanced, light body, but also robust and long finish. Has decent tannins and high acidity. Reminds me of Calabretta Sicilian wines. Gaglioppo grape. Paid $20. Buy again. — a year ago
