2012 DuMOL Pinot Noir Ryan Widdoes VineyardRussian River Valley more |
2/20/2023 - Casanovadineri Likes this wine: 93 pointsComsumed over 2 days; this one was a really great one with crushed fresh fruit, most notably strawberries, cinnamon and clove. 2nd day it took on a more old world style with notes of crushed stone, stewed berry fruits and mace. Drink now or in the next 2-3 years. |

8/27/2022 - Casanovadineri Likes this wine: NRAddictive and 100% smashable bottle! This one hits every right note with me: funky, dank raspberry, strawberry, tart, fizzy, acidic, and so super refreshing that you can't help but drink the whole bottle by yourself. But this one is best for a hot afternoon with friends or pulled directly from an iced cooler for that perfect picnic at the park. |

2019 Castellare di Castellina Chianti ClassicoChianti Classico DOCG Sangiovese Blend, Sangiovese more |
6/5/2022 - Casanovadineri Likes this wine: 87 pointsAfter having the 2020, this 2019 seems to be a bit of a sleeper. Typical red berry fruit, rosemary and pomegranate. More floral than I was expecting but still a excellent bottle for those Italian themed dinner nights. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (3) |

5/3/2022 - Casanovadineri Likes this wine: 92 pointsThis one was superb and I see why RP gave it a 95. And the drink date is pretty much on point. Blueberry pie, baking spices, tobacco, pencil shavings and earthiness. |
