Riserva Clemente VII Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2020

Licorice Snaps, Olive Temponade, cherry, raspberries, slate, strawberry jam! A lot in this glass on Pop n Pour. Vintage Chart indicates nowhere near ready to drink (I use as a light reference). I expect this to improve with age, definitely yummy now! — a month ago

Casal di Serra Vecchie Vigne Classico Superiore Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi 2023

Austere was the first word that came to mind and then I saw it in @Tom Casagrande’s review as well (though of the previous vintage). Overall I still enjoyed it, but you have to be in the mood for a crisp, somewhat bitter, reclusive wine. — 2 months ago

La Marca di San Michele

CapoVolto Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore 2021

Structure is on point: high acidity, long finish, full mouthfeel. Flavors are a jumbled mess though. Bruised fruit is primary. Clean up some of that and this would be fire. — a month ago
