We had the 2016 Vintage on 10/23-24/23. This is a good one from Moshin. Black cherry, black raspberry and spice on the palate. Medium bodied, fruit forward. Tannins all smoothed out. Ready to go — a year ago
Wine stimulates our sense of smell and taste but in this case it also created a tidal wave of emotion. Through a tremendous act of generosity a dear friend shared this special bottle when he heard me lament I was not able to secure a bottle of wine to celebrate my mother’s 100 birthday. My friend stood the bottle up for several days. We decided it made sense to PnP. As you can see the cork was intact and the color of the wine defied its age. The excitement to take that first sniff was overwhelming for me. Old but alive scents wowed me. Lots of tobacco, leaves, leather and dried fruit. In the mouth those same scents were transferred to my palate thanks to a tsunami of acid. At about the one hour mark the wine quickly entered a death spiral. I cannot imagine another bottle of wine that will ever conjure up that amount of emotion and happiness. When I described my experience to my mom, a very broad smile came over her face. A blessing to share this experience with my mom and a privilege to taste a wine like this. — 4 months ago
Waitrose. Excellent. Zesty lime notes, but then with undertones of peach and tropical fruits. — 3 years ago
The 2019 Sangiovese Superiore Le More explodes from the glass with a perfumed wave of chalk dust, wild berries, shavings of cedar and pine. It’s soft and energetic, with mineral-tinged plums, cherries and savory herbal tones. The 2019 tapers off with a sour twang of citrus and inner rose. $14.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, November 2021) — 3 years ago

This wine has a medium lemon hue in appearance and medium (+) intensity of aromas such as quince, yellow apple, bosc pear, kumquat, lemon zest, gardenia, chamomile, almond, cream, and fennel, next to chalk, wet slate, and saline, oystershell characteristics. It’s dry and precise with a waxy texture & weight despite its mouth-watering acidity. It has a medium body and a long, elegant finish. It’s positively delicious.
Cheers to the Lemons and their commitment to producing beautiful wines expressive of place! — a month ago
