2006 Il Colle Brunello di Montalcino Private Label for Enoteca Pitti Gola e Cantina
5/11/2024 - blank blank wrote:
This is flat out one of the best brunellos I’ve ever had, and I collect brunello. Picked up at a local shop that sells auction leftovers at retail, I had no idea this was the private enoteca pitti reserve until I was a glass into the bottle wondering what the hell was going on. Red fruit, herbs, touch of balsamic; full bodied, fruity and ripe but with good Sangiovese acidity to keep it balanced; just a hint of soy/foresty age but mostly fresh; velvet textured with soft, mature tannins. Glorious wine - as good as any Soldera or Lisini Ugolaia or Cerbaiona I’ve ever had, and frankly better.

This was a very nice Calistoga cab - ripe fruit but everything else in balance, and the fruit hadn't been hung too long but retained real skin tannin and true cab character. Reminded me of Montelena from 20 years ago. Good wine!

2015 Château Clos de Sarpe

Very, very, very ripe and raisin-y; a Bordeaux for modern Napa lovers.
