2004 Stefano Accordini Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Vigneto Il FornettoCorvina Blend, Corvina more |
12/24/2023 - docvin1107 wrote: 90 pointsI've had this bottle in my cellar for approx 15 years. Slow oxidation in bottle for 2 hours. Brownish color. Very mature dusty flavors of dried fruits - rasins, figs, sour cherries, and prunes. Hints of oak, black tea and dark chocolate. Some pleasant bitterness, but the alcohol quite present and a little too "hot" on the aftertaste and missing some freshness IMHO. All in all - a fully matured and lovely Amarone true to the style - but not my style anymore. 90+ |

2013 Fratelli Revello Barbera d'Alba Ciabot du Remore |
11/6/2016 - docvin1107 Likes this wine: 90 pointsClearly modern style. Dark fruits, some dusty flavours, spice/anise, and a lot of oak/cigar box/vanilla. Nevertheless, a well made wine in its own style with good structure, decent balance and medium length. The mature fruit flavors actually carries the rather heavy use of oak quite well. Paired nicely with slow cocked Osso Buco and risotto. 89-90p |

11/9/2015 - docvin1107 Likes this wine: 93 pointsPnP. Quite primary. Fresh flavors of apples, minerality, white flowers and peach. A little yeast/bread in the background. Fine bubbles and lovely balanced acidity. Still a teenager but with great expectations for a promising adulthood. For now 92-93P - potentially 93-95P |

2/6/2015 - docvin1107 Likes this wine: 92 pointsMy first DP. Fine tiny bubbles and despite the vintage very elegant and very linear. Mix of elderflower and other white flowers, green apples, citrus. had expected bit more "umf" and a longer finish - but maybe I drank this too early?! 1 person found this helpful, do you?

2/3/2015 - docvin1107 Likes this wine: 90 pointsStill very primary and closed down. Slowly opened up after 1-2 hours when the bottle was almost finish. Will let the rest of my bottles rest for another 2-3 years and give a good decant! |
