San Pietro Friuli Colli Orientali Friulano 2022

Futili wine that is smooth, kind of creamy (not in a California Chardonnay kind of way though), that tastes a little like white flowers and linen. Just delicious. — a month ago

Conte Ferdinando Guicciardini

Massi di Mandorlaia Riserva Morellino di Scansano Sangiovese 2019

This is nice. Blind I would have guessed Chianti Classico. The nose shows cherry, oak, tar, autumn leaves, black tea, coffee beans, a bit of meat juice. The palate is juicy and silky, with a nice cherry note shining through and through, some oaky touches, some meaty, savoury notes too along with that black tea thing. There is width, there is some matter too, and the silky mouthfeel turns into a massive tannic wall in the rear, that disrupts completely the entire mouthfeel. The finish is long, cherry and meat juice forward, sliding upon a nice, drying tannic layer for a good while. A tiny bitter note shows up in the very end. This is serious stuff, pretty classical in style when I compare it with chianti classico examples that I have tasted. I like that ! — 7 months ago

From magnum. Lift bodied with a ton of herbs and spice. The fruit was definitely secondary. Great with the pasta and steak. — 2 years ago

White WotN. Captivating nose of leesy mandarin. Green apple palate, impossibly dry for an oil-can thickness. — 6 months ago

San Ferdinando

Toscana Vermentino 2013

At an Italian restaurant- good value. Straw color. Floral nose. Crisp with nice acidity watering the palate with a hint of tartness. honeydew cucumber hint of green apple and mineral. — a year ago
