  • 2019 Argiano Brunello di Montalcino

    Medium reddish garnet in color. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, blueberries & plums with overtones of floral notes of violets & earthy/dusty notes, herbs, spices, sandalwood, minerals, orange rind & a slight hint of cedar. Medium-full bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, lush, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, blueberries & plums with spices, herbs & minerals. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with decanting & extended airing but it should develop further with additional aging. A wonderful Brunello which will only get better over time.

  • 2020 La Spinetta (Rivetti) Barbera d'Asti Superiore Cà di Pian

    Dark reddish garnet in color, essentially opaque. Full, forward & attractive nose of ripe red fruit aromas of blueberries, cherries & mulberries with overtones of earthy/dusty & floral notes, spice notes, herbs & minerals. Medium bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, plush, ripe fruit flavors of red cherries, blueberries & plums, herbs & minerals. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with decanting & extended airing but should develop further with additional aging. A lovely & enjoyable Barbera. IMHO, there is no way objectively possible that this is a "65" point wine unless it was an off bottle.

    6/13/2022 9:17:00 PM - It is with deep regret that I was informed SRH, a frequent commentator here & a good friend, has recently passed away. Stanley, my dearest friend, we will all miss you very much!
