Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2019

Nice but was hoping for a bit more refinement and balance. 15% which comes through only a bit. Still some rusticity. But the overall quality of the fruit is high. Would give it a couple more years at least. — 19 days ago

Poggio Ai Ginepri Bolgheri Red Bordeaux Blend 2022

Chocolatey, leathery mouth feel with mainly dark cherry from a fruit perspective. A tiny little spice on the back with a touch of nutmeg. Paired well with Goulash Di Manzo (short rib stew over polenta with mushrooms). — 2 months ago

Tenuta Col d'Orcia

Poggio al Vento Riserva Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2015

One of the best Italian wines I've had recently. Deep, juicy cherry and plum notes dominate. Well-rounded, elegant. Great with some chocolate or a lighter pasta dish with lean meat. — 9 days ago

Poggio Verrano

Dròmos Maremma Toscana Super Tuscan Blend

In a fantastic phase. A bit watery on the edge but absolutely singing. Great nose with black fruit. Lengthy finish. — 2 months ago

Poggio al Tesoro

Il Seggio Bolgheri Merlot Blend 2020

This delicious Italian Bordeaux-style blend is smooth and balanced. The oak is admirably restrained. Bright blueberry and cherry fruits dominate, with a pleasant, tongue-coating tannic tingle to the silky finish. — 3 days ago

Rocca dell'Olmo

Barolo Nebbiolo 2019

Trader Joe’s. Long gone! For 15$ quite good! This is the 2019 - one of the best vintages in Piedmont. So - in this case even lousy cheapo wineries made great wine. Tastes like 40$. Roses, super astringent, violets. Hint Eucalyptus. A little rough: Bought a case most gone should have bought 2 - will age the last 3 bottles just out of curiosity - could go another 5-10 years. Thanks Scott for this find!!! — 3 months ago

@Pinotman /// Andreas Aaaargh!! Was at Trader Joe’s a few hours ago browsing. They still have the 2020 edition but guess who rifled through all 24 bottles on display looking for a bottle of the 2019? No dice. They rotate stock waay better than your average bear/grocery store. Enjoy!!
