Community Tasting Notes 12

    December 26, 2023 - Probably a tad past its prime, but was good right out of the bottle; after sitting in the decanter (used to remove the sediment) it was bad about an hour later. Have 3 bottles left that I’ll work through in the near term.

    May 12, 2022 - EYE: dark brick red, consistent with aged Sangiovese, transitioning to lighter brick and clear at the edge
    NOSE: M+ intensity, dark black cherry, & black plum compote, leather, vanilla, purple flowers, touch of savory notes - soy sauce or hoisin.
    PALATE: M body, cherry dominates the entry, M(-) acid. Blue fruit, then savory notes mid-palate, wraps with vanilla and fine M+ tannins, cocoa powder. M finish
    OVERALL: still holding together after 16 years quite well but clearly has its foot in the mature wine pool. Dropping acidity and notes of voilatile acidity indicate soon is the best time to drink. I probably should have enjoyed this 2-4 years ago but was fun to see how this wine showed Brunello notes despite being 50% Cab Sauv.

    December 26, 2019 - Good solid Cab/Sangio. Not decanted. Nicly rounded when poured initially. Nice fruit. Acidity got stronger with time in the glass/bottle. Good body throughout with good length.

    March 11, 2017 - A Beautiful wine 50% Cab 50% Sangiovese. Wonderful winemaker. Deep ruby color. Fruit forward with nice acid finish

    January 3, 2017 - Cocoa and blackberry on the nose. Very powerful, imposing tannins. But it lacks finesse. Reminiscent of Vigna d`Alceo without having its complexity. Intense black fruits on the palate and a nice liquorice finish. Lots of terroir and cocoa.
