Nice for a steak dinner at a restaurant for a reasonable price. Pop and pour Zinfandel blend. Deep color, fruit and spice aroma. Palate is heavily red Zinfandel with dark berries, plum, and spice - pepper with a hint of nutmeg and vanilla. Balanced tannins and acidity. Short but pleasant finish. — 9 months ago

The 12 drinks really well with time to go but hard to imagine it gets a lot better, the 17 was uninspiring with muted nose and subdued taste, the 19 has good potential in 6-9 years. Note: Pours were a little light for the price, so buyer beware! — 2 years ago

2021 vintage. Last tasted 7.17.24 (9.2). This "junior" Barolo continuing to bring the goods. Medium-heavy body. Likely best in another 7-10 years but showing nicely now. The nice price and a worthy choice while waiting for those big gun Barolos to come out of hibernation. 12.11.24. — 2 months ago
The boisterous nose is worth the entire price of admission on this one. Cedar, cassis, black and red berries, gravel, graphite, roasted herbs. Dark and intense in the mouth. Flavors on the lower end of the register. Tacky tannins still very present, but the flavors are nicely evolved. I’d say this is peaking soon, and probably won’t live to see the tannins totally softer, but they’ll be tamed by the porterhouse I’m about to grill. — 6 months ago
Bolognese leftovers?
Bam!
Rich toasty on the nose.
What a fun, easy malbec for the price!
Finished a bottle in college once. Was in the attic watching TV in a party house. Nostalgic vibes only. — 4 years ago

Been a standard in the often underrated white blend space for years. Still remains the quality that I’d expect from them which over delivers for the price. Melon and honey. Lovely wine. — 20 days ago
