Hi everyone! This is lovely (rare descriptor for me). Medium red brick color, medium plus body, medium plus alcohol but subtle. Nice acidity, and tannins make this absolutely drinkable right now-- 8/26/25 my 58th birthday, forgot to give everyone my new Miami address for bottled gifts 😜 . Certainly floral notes on both the nose and palate, but not rose, some cedar overtones, with an enjoyable minerality. It's lovely because it all comes together like a beautiful gift basket (pun not intended) that would impress a royal lady, but stand up proud for a gentleman. It will improve, but you don't have to let it!

A lovely blend of malvasia and vermentino, a bit acidic at first, light and easily paired with meat or fish, slightly effervescent, for me personally no discernible flavor yet very tasty in its own right. — 3 years ago
Dry, tannic and acidic. A very good wine with notes of leather, ref fruit, and mushroom. — 2 months ago

We had the 2010 riserva on 2/8/25. A fabulous Brunello. All of the expected good scents and flavors: black cherry, raspberry, leather and tobacco. Well balanced; tannins smoothed out. Good finish. — 9 months ago
Cherry aromas, a touch of mint, very well balanced. Nice selection for filet tonight. — 2 months ago
