Pio Cesare

Barolo Nebbiolo 2015

“Please don’t call it regular”…. more bricking than expected at 10 years old. But tasted fresh. An hour decant helped. — 4 hours ago

Langhe Nebbiolo 2022

I think Produttori’s langhe is one of all time best values every year and this is no exception. This has great red and a smidge of purple fruit. Tannins are quite present but with a bit of air they fall into balance (though this could certainly take time). Excellent pairing with a simple but high quality pork chop. Very nice acid on the finish. Really enjoyable. — 24 days ago

Gaja

Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2013

Needed an hour +. Ripe and mature enough but still on the early side. Very good balance. Tart and complex. Excellent accompaniment to the mushroom risotto and the veal that followed. — a month ago

Tenuta San Guido

Guidalberto Toscana Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2022

Pop and pour WOW. Old world dried flowers on the nose. Elegant on the palate with balance of acidity and soft tannins - that linger on the front and middle of the tongue. More layers of flavors than I can describe with roses, mixed berries, clove, leather, tobacco, etc., and none were dominant. What a pleasant surprise. — 2 days ago

Azienda Agricola Fontodi

Flaccianello della Pieve Colli Toscana Centrale Sangiovese 2010

Should have decanted and filtered on the pour. It was a different wine in the last half due to the sediment. Still very enjoyable and a solid wine from a great vintage. Smooth and balanced good harmony of fruit with earthiness. — 8 hours ago
