I am always in the mood for an Italian wine. Vino Nobile is on the top of my list. These wines are made from this unique Sangiovese clone called Prugnolo Gentile. This Talosa reserve wine from 2016 is a great example. Complex layers of dark red fruit, perfectly infused tannins and then this unmistakable rusty iron minerality on the finish. A bit of an acquired taste but once you are hooked, you are hooked for life. We will definitely dive into these wines from Montepulciano on our Spoken Wines channel. Have you had a chance to check us out on our YouTube channel? Our latest story is about Hells Canyon winery. Did you know that Idaho had such fantastic wines??! You got to try them to believe it. www.spokenwines.com. — 5 months ago
Ruby in color with a wide reddish/ brick rim.
Nice nose and medium plus in body.
Dry on the palate with medium plus acidity.
Showing red and black fruits with light wood, tobacco leaf, herbs, peppercorn, pencil lead, dark coffee, dark chocolates and earth.
Long finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
This 7 year old Sangiovese from Montepulciano is elegant and robust. Feels big, yet not in your face kind of wine.
Well balanced with nice complexity and mouthfeel. The high alcohol is well integrated.
This Single Vineyard will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
100% Sangiovese grapes were aged in large Croatian oak barrels for 2 years. A small production of only 4,000 bottles.
15% alcohol by volume.
92 points.

Smooth Italian Chianti Classico paired beautifully with lasagna alla bolegnese and chicken parmigiana — 5 months ago
I bought and drank a fair amount of Allegrini Palazzo Della Torre back in the late 1990s, and always enjoyed them. First time in the past 20 years, this seems a little softer and polished, a little lower ABV (13.5 vs. 14+ in earlier vintages), this is vinified using conventional fermentation as well as some ripasso fermentation (think Amarone drying grapes on straw mats), and has some very nice complexity and length, very nice!! — 2 months ago

Ripe red fruit, earthy with light smoke. An impressive wine for the price. — 4 months ago

Outstanding! Drinking extremely well right now. Great complexity, texture, and length. An incredibly regal wine from every angle.
