Opened and decanted two hours prior to service; enjoyed over the course of a couple hours. The 1997 “Vigneto Brich Ronchi” pours a deep, hazy garnet color with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears and some signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of ripe and desiccated black and red fruits: Blackberry, Morello cherry, bruised strawberry, dried roses, tar, leather, potting soil, and subtle warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. The finish is long and savory. This is in a lovely spot. Drink now through 2027. — a month ago

An interesting Pinot Grigio from the southern section of Valdadige within the Veneto region (northern of Italy). Plentiful of white stony fruits embedded to the lime, quince and some herbs. It definitely has a bit and weight as a mouthfeel, short but sharp finish. It can be great as a sipper or a pairing grand stand with Mediterranean food and white sauce pastas. — 19 days ago

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Ruby in color with medium plus intensity.

Fruity nose with lots of fruits, cedar and chocolate notes.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel.

Showing sweet cherries, currants, cedar, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco, chocolates, light earth, coffee, herbs, spices and black pepper.

Long finish with soft tannins and cherries.

This 7 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa is peaking now, and will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 years.

Delicious, complex and fruit forward. Nicely balanced and soft. Reminds me of a Left Bank Bordeaux.

This Single Vineyard is easy drinking and good by itself or with food. A great sipping wine.

I paired it with a Florentine steak.

A blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot. Aged in French oak barrels for 20 months. A very small production of 1,500 bottles.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$125. — 10 months ago

Happy to find this on the shelf in NorCal. Still love the Cotta, but this takes me back to Barbaresco in a whiff. — a month ago

With enough age and air to hit on all cylinders. A bit of VA on day 2 and it elevates it even more. — 3 months ago

Deep tannins, dark fruits (prune, blueberry), higher alcohol, but we like it. — a year ago
