This is what wine from Puglia can be at its best. This is a fuller bodied wine with plum and blackberry notes. Everything meshes together well. The finish is sufficient but not long. — 3 months ago

This 2016 Barolo’s nose is cherry, dried cranberry, rose, and leather. One the palate similar flavors as the nose with the addition of a hint of tobacco. Great wine. — 19 days ago
Crisp and bright with acidity with notes of pineapple, lemon, and a touch of pear. A brilliant summer taste with enough acid to hold up to rich white sauces. — a month ago

This wine is very dark. It looks that way and it smells that way, too. The nose offers a funky, earthy, dare I say barnyard-y package of aromas. The fruit that is there, the blackberry, currant, and black plum, is muted and dwarfed by the savory smells. Tar, creosote, forest floor, and cigars are the main event. The palate bears much more fruit. Flavors of dark berry, black currant, plum, black cherry, elderberry and black Mission fig all vie for attention. The mouthfeel is fairly elegant, which is surprising after the brute force of the nose. Fine tannins and a gentle acidity will make a nice pairing with meatballs in a Bolognese sauce or sautéed mushrooms. — 24 days ago
