Marchesi Antinori

Solaia Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2009

A masterpiece from the Antinori House. This starts of meaty and leathery with some rose petals and evolves to pure bliss with good strength. — 2 days ago

SP68 Terre Siciliane Nero d'Avola Frappato

Perfect for the Summer. If you're in the tropics, perfect for everyday. Light color, balanced in acidity, and with a hint of earthy volcanic undertone. — a day ago

Tenuta San Guido

Guidalberto Toscana Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2020

Rubis presque violet. Dense et jeune. Un premier nez presque médicinal, cerise, poivron. Le bouquet est agréable. La bouche est puissante, on sent sa jeunesse. C'est long et sec. L'acidité est bien marqué. Les saveurs de cerises et de cèdre s'entremêlent pour ce vin en début de vie. — 5 days ago

Isole e Olena

Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2020

Really quite nice, and a perfect pairing with a Tuscan style bistecca. Have wanted to try Isole e Olena for a while but I think this was the first time. Dark cherry, some dusty restrained tannins, excellent acid of course. Another nice 2020 Chianti. — 2 days ago

Guado al Tasso Bolgheri Superiore Red Bordeaux Blend 2003

Super Tuscan at its peak, just beginning to show brickish color on the rim but intense ruby for the most part. The nose starts of with wet forest and red roses and opens to opulent dark berries then wet wood and even wet leather. Palate has persistent fruit throughout with hints of vanilla, polished tannins and bright acidity with a long balanced finish. — 7 days ago

Sella & Mosca

Riserva Cannonau di Sardegna 2020

Very ripe color. Low concentration. High alcohol and big nose. Way softer on palate than I anticipated. Nicely balanced. Short finish. Medium to low tannins. Not much fruit in this one, mostly earthy notes. — 6 days ago
