Txakoli Primo

Zarautz Rosado

Another solid vintage of this interesting Rose’. Light salmon/peach color. Aromas of apricot and grapefruit. Flavors of ripe pear, lemon/lime and tropical fruits with a slight green pepper note. Touch of salinity on the finish. Pleasant light effervescence tickles the tongue. Chill it prior to opening. Fun and refreshing. — 2 months ago

Fattoria La Massa

Giorgio Primo Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2013

Just great. Outstanding Bdx-blend SuperTuscan. Deep, complex, juicy and rich. Lovely now with a decant, probably even better in a few years’ time. Might be underrating this one. — 6 months ago

Fattoria La Massa

Giorgio Primo Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 1995

Back in 1995, Tenuta La Massa’s “Giorgio Primo” was a different wine than the version that is made today. Back then, Sangiovese was a predominate variety in the blend. So much so, it was still carrying the Chianti Classico designation. Today, I’m not so sure any Sangiovese remains, but I digress.

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple hours. The 1995 “Giorgio Primo” pours a deep garnet with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of dessicated Morello cherry, red flowers, leather bound books, porchini, tiramisu, wood varnish, dry earth. Yes, definitely some VA. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannins and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. This sees a little more barrique than I prefer but it’s undoubtedly an excellent wine. Drink now through 2030.

The Bard Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2018

9.5

So many peeps enjoyed the visual of our cellar, thought I’d give you the side shot.
Coming direct from the winery, this Bard is so consistent with prior vintages, and the presentation is rock solid. So much depth on the nose and palate. 2012 vintage is still primo, but this vintage is knocking at the door and wants to join the party.
