Vintage 2020 | with this Italian Syrah that I served blind I fooled my wine friends, because they thought that the cherry fruitiness and rondeur was the equivalent of a Cru the Beaujolais. High acidity. And they also determined spicyness and pepper. — 3 months ago

Love this wine. Excellent Nebbiolo that drinks far better than its price point. — 9 months ago

Bellísimo! Eucalyptus gave way to lavender and cocoa. Tightly wound cherry with long tannic finish. Had with frito misto, gnocchi pomodoro, margherita pizza and herb rack of lamb at Casa di Don Alfonso. First indoor meal in >1 year. Was like riding a bike. — 4 years ago

Deep amber. Nuts and sweet caramel. Oak. Dry, then deep. Matured. A bit sweet is better? Gonzalez Byass Alfonso Seco Oloroso @2680, F, 250629-250701 — 3 months ago

Not as rustic as Galloni describes it and not as over the moon as Audrey. This is a nice Langhe nebbiolo with what you expect with a translucent ruby color, classic aromas and typical palate. Don't expect fireworks but is is very well done for what it is.

Translucent ruby red, with aromas of strawberry, cherry, and red raspberry, some rose petals, orange peel, and subtle spices. Med+ bodied, medium grain tannin, med+ flavor intensity, with a pretty, youthful and fresh finish. — 8 months ago

An airy, effusive and downright beautiful wine is the 2018 Taganan from the Tenerife Envínate property of modernist Spanish winemakers Laura Ramos, Jose Martínez, Roberto Santana and Alfonso Torrente. Created from 100-200 year old vines on volcanic soils, it’s a delicate, restrained wine with a gorgeous, smoky bouquet of sour cherry, strawberries and Provençal herbs; the palate, meanwhile, is saturated with very fine tannins, almost imperceptible acidity and nice length. Served lightly chilled, this is an exciting wine which should gain further interest with age. — 3 years ago

Very quaffable! Fruity, not much tannin. Guess I’m in a punchy mood. Paired well with spring salad, pasta, and asparagus. 2021 vintage — 5 months ago

Beautiful wine. Presents as a cross of burgundy Pinot Noir and Sangiovese. Dusty cherry and strawberry on the palate like Sangiovese. Light tannins like Pinot. Welcome medium acidity to make it its own. — 6 months ago

Very nice! Dark Berry fruit aroma. The berry continues with the flavor along with a cherry finish. Went nicely with Penna, Italian sausage and eggplant marinara. — 3 years ago
