It’s fun finding favorites from early days of wine career. I love this wine. Rich and plummy.

Very well balanced, with the richness of an amarone and the softness of a more mature vintage

2015 Classico. This is a thinking wine. Smells like hard liquor when first uncorked. Let it sit for a hour and it turns into a bold red gem. Filled with dark berries and thick velvety richness. Spices. Spectacular.

The nose reminds me of a 2002 Etna Rossi sans the price tag. Great find.

One of my favorite valpo producers, very deft hand. Stays brooding and rich while still expressing some delicate notes. Great value in comparisons to some of its competitors.
