Beautiful aromas of northern Italy. In the middle of a pandemic, this brings me back to my visit. Earthy flavors on the front with a wash of dark chocolate coming through. Finish is long and smooth with a velvet texture with dark fruit coming through in the end.

Jammy nose with hints of leather and cherry. Very soft tannins. Blackberry jam and some tart cherry on the front palate. Long finish of dark chocolate and tiny hint of espresso. Quite good and benefits from warming up from cellar temp. More Shiraz forward than I would have expected, but fantastic.

Very solid chardonnay. Color is amber/gold and the nose is mainly mango/pineapple with no noticeable oak. Very soft on the pallate with light acidity and good balance. Great white fruit flavors in the middle with pear and apple coming through. Again, no significant oak which is refreshing. Only downside is heat from the high ABV, but otherwise outstanding value at this price point.
