  • 1997 Prunotto Barbaresco Bric Turot - Italy, Piedmont, Langhe, Barbaresco
    Dark ruby colour with a touch of pink on the rim. Aromas of orange rind, anise/licorice, truffle, animal fur, and a touch of herbs. Medium-bodied, showing pretty fruit, although the finish is a tad shorter than I would like. (90 pts.)
  • 1999 Avignonesi Cortona Desiderio - Italy, Tuscany, Cortona
    Dark ruby colour. Aromas of cinnamon, dark fruit, plums, spice. Medium-bodied, delicious, showing great fruit, cocoa, dark plum, cherry, and herbs on the palate. Moderate finish, 35s, with dark fruit. (92 pts.)
  • 2003 Fattoria Petrolo Il Torrione Toscana IGT - Italy, Tuscany, Toscana IGT
    Dark ruby red, almost opaque. Aromas of vanilla, currant liqueur, black plums. Medium-full bodied, a little restrained, with dark fruit. Moderate finish, ~30s, with dark fruit. Needs time. (90 pts.)
  • N.V. Alvear Pedro Ximénez Montilla-Moriles Solera 1927 - Spain, Andalucía, Montilla-Moriles
    Dark amber/brown colour. Aromas of fleur-de-sel, nuts, coffee, toffee. Full-bodied, viscous, rich, unctuous wine, showing replays from nose and dried figs. Long finish, 50+ seconds following through from the palate. Not as good as the 1971 Don PX, but still very good. (92 pts.)
