You’ve got to be kidding me. A 2007 Salvo Foti wine. A museum piece. Wonderful Etna Rosso minerals, herbs, deep red fruit. Thank you Alex, for finding and gifting it. — 5 days ago
The rating is more for how excited I was to actually try a DRC in my life… it’s really not bad! Def past its prime but still drinkable. — a month ago
The 1995 La Tâche Grand Cru is an outstanding wine from a decade when I don't think the Domaine was firing on all cylinders. This echoes the magnum tasted last year with those ebullient red cherries and crushed strawberry scents on the nose. As you might expect from the bottle format, it's a little more open and evolved than the magnum. The palate is beautifully balanced with fine-boned tannins, with a dash of white pepper sprinkled over the millefeuille of red fruit. It's delineated and poised towards the finish, so much so that you almost don't notice its structure. Sublime. (Neal Martin, Vinous, June 2024)

Powerful and zesty. Deep and complex. Beautiful and rich… plum and gnarly fruit. Still quite young. Years ahead. — a month ago

Dark ruby color with purple highlights. Aromas and flavors of red and black cherry, red and purple flowers, orange zest, savory herbs, pepper spice and ash. Very chewy tannins and quite hefty for a Chianti. Medium bodied. Could stand some additional bottle age. Thanks for sharing, James W. — 25 days ago
