Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 92 pts. and median of 92 pts. in 11 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by abelicious on 3/5/2024: Translucent peach. Oxidised. Definitely past peak. Drinkable, wasn’t feeling it, so dumped it. Probably would have been great with the right pairing. Sherry sub perhaps. (145 views)
 Tasted by Richard123 on 2/2/2023 flawed bottle: This was very well oxidized, I think the wine is just past its window. If you have any, you might as well open them and clear out your cellar! (451 views)
 Tasted by BPaff on 9/27/2022 & rated 93 points: Really great flavour concentration, some bitter herbs, autumn florals, dried grapefruit and peach fruitiness lingering, starting to gain a bit of a sherry like oxidative note. (514 views)
 Tasted by MargauxA on 3/28/2021 & rated 93 points: Fresh and unique, drink lightly chilled so that subtle fruit character balances with phenolics and slight bitterness on the after palate. On the nose, medium(-) honeysuckle, white peach. Would have liked to see a little more fruit concentration, but still loved this wine. (1037 views)
 Tasted by dmanzoni on 11/28/2020 & rated 93 points: Quasi ramato e assolutamente favoloso (1124 views)
 Tasted by KTelaak_Buffalo on 11/19/2019 & rated 92 points: A terrific old world expression of Pinot Grigio. Almost a full rose in color. A great experience! (1530 views)
 Tasted by srh on 6/30/2018: Winebar [4 Whites, 8 Reds, & 4 *shared* VERY *interesting* bottles] from 06/29/18] (Vintage Wines Ltd., San Diego, CA): Note: Slightly pink or copper-hued in color [ramato style]

100% Pinot Grigio grown from vines ave 18 yrs old grown in rather shallow, well-drained soils with generous gravel-pebbly texture, and clay of reddish hue due to presence of ferrous & aluminum oxides. Malolactic blocked. Aged 9 mos on the lees, then 10 mos in the bottle; 13.80% ABV, 5.00 g/l T.A., & 3.38 pH. 2,916 cs made

N: Smoke, notes of oranges?

P: Med, poss MF, body; RNDISH entry with NICE frt met by counterbalancing acidity with a bit of astringency which DOES pretty much lose its "bite" by the LONG, Very, VERY slightly bitter finish with ULT notes of swtness to bring it through. For now & through '19. An atypical style, at least for me. My VG+/EXC-. 93 pts Suckling, 92 Vinous, 89 WS, & 88 WE @ $43 [which strikes me as QUITE a *poor* QPR for the sugg retail of a style most would consider an anomaly.] [This vendor's $21.95 is at LEAST $3 < anyone else on wine-searcher.] (2200 views)
 Tasted by Steve.330i on 3/31/2018 & rated 90 points: Come al solito un vino ben fatto dalla famiglia Gallo, naso elegante con arance e albicocche non troppo intenso. In bocca pieno ed elegante, bella mineralitá, sapido, fresco e bello lungo. Da conservare più a lungo in cantina. (1631 views)
 Tasted by Mark Nagle on 2/5/2018 & rated 93 points: Skin contact pale orange / pink. Best not too cold served with mild cold cut cured meat or with shellfish with a robust sauce. (1261 views)
