  January 28, 2024 - Haven't had a Seghesio Cortina in a long time, and I'm happy to report that they are still very well made and delicious wines. Brambly zin fruit and plenty of structure and acidity. Drinking very well but there's definite upside over the next 3 to 5+ years.

  November 15, 2023 - This bottle was much closer to my expectations but still not where it should be. Cortina has typically been the best quality for the price of the specialty Zins and this vintage appears not to be up to standards.

  October 19, 2023 - Dark garnet in color. Full, fragrant & attractive nose of ripe fruits aromas of cherries, blackberries & plums with overtones of spices, a bit briary, herbs, pepper, minerals & a hint of oak/vanilla. Medium-full bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of dark cherries, blackberries & plums with spices, herbs, minerals & a slight hint of oak/vanilla. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with decanting and extended airing but has the structure to develop further with additional aging.

  December 3, 2022 - A different lot of wine than first 2 bottles. Flavor and character closer to historic, but still no up to par. Less briariness than expected.
