It was a Sine Qua Non night (which are always my favorites!). This was surprisingly tight given its age. Came back to it a couple of days later and it was SO MUCH better. If you have this in your cellar and are planning to pull it soon, I’d suggest a 4-hour decant to let it open up. It’ll be fantastic! — 4 years ago

El Chianti era famoso en esas mesas domingueras en familia, me llamaba la atención la botella en su canastilla. Este Piccini lo encontré a muy buen precio aprovechando mi salida semanal, en vista: rojo rubí, en nariz: fresco, frutos rojos, cerezas, en boca: equilibrado, los frutos rojos presentes, aterciopelado, taninos suaves, redondo, acompañamos con unos ñoquis a las tres salsas roja, verde y blanca, exquisitos, de segundo ensalada mixta, temperatura de servicio 16° - 18° C Saludos — 6 years ago

My first experience with Ferren, and wanted to check in ahead of the release next month. Knowing the vineyard source and the winemaker’s background, I had very high hopes.
When I first opened it, I was taken aback at how acidic it was. Spritz-like for the first 30mins, but the back of the palate had a good bit of richness, so I figured this just needed time to open. Bingo. At two hours in, this hit stride. It started off similar to Aubert’s Larry Hyde & Sons chard due to its acidic nature, but as it shed that, it became more reminiscent of Aubert’s Powder House and Kistler’s McCrea. It doesn’t have the same texture that Aubert does, but it has more richness and complexity than what I’ve found Kistler to have (consistently). Very Sonoma Coast. Lemon cream, tart citrus, dash of sea salt and lemon rind on the nose. Not quite waxy on the palate, but it gained heft and showed amazing weight when compared to its acidic lift/structure. Ripe Asian pear, powdered lemon bar, honeysuckle, and a vein of “minerality” down the mid palate. Only getting better! — 5 years ago
