5/23/2024 - Ölprinz Likes this wine: 91 points

Es sei der Verdienst von Heinrich Mayr, den Fortbestand dieser autochthonen Rebsorte gesichert zu haben. Danke dafür! Im Glas funkelt dunkles Goldgelb. In der Nase dezent oxydativ, Kräuter en masse, reifes Steinobst, vergorene Mirabelle, Quitte, Kreide, Walnuss und Mandeln. Der kleine Rest an Tag 2 flirtet mit Rosinen und Dörrobst. Hat was von einem Muskateller. Am Gaumen buttrig, cremig, blumig, schmelzig, Pfefferwürze, moderate aber präzise Säure und ein stetig länger und salziger werdender Abgang. Hat prima zu Pasta mit Pesto gepasst.

Making room in the cellar for better stuff. I know I bought this bottle at Costco many years ago in the $20-$30 range. Deep purple color, almost murky (unfiltered, maybe?) or just old. Plums and dark red cherries on the nose. A little sweet on the palate, surprisingly. Dark red fruits. Maybe some sweet fresh tobacco notes. I won't be running out to get more of this, but there is nothing shouting "bad wine!" either. It's a well made product. Probably should have had it years ago when it was a better version of itself.

Every once in a while you get a wine that stops you in your tracks. This is such a a wine. It comes across with such honesty, purity, and vigor. Whatever Marco and Benedetta are doing (and it looks like they are checking a lot of the right boxes), it’s really striking a chord.

2021 Heinrich Mayr (Nusserhof) Blaterle Bianco

Vino da Tavola Blatterle more

5/11/2024 - Putnam Weekley Likes this wine: 96 points

59°F/15°C. NOSE: a piercing, brittle, stone/salt edge leads herbal musk, almond, olive-blossom, satsuma seed, and flooded sand. MOUTH: dry and nutty, aiming in the direction of Macharnudo but more limber and aerosol. The pace is engrossing, with little flavor productive cataracts of cherry-stone pulp and succulent herbs; wide open topography suggesting crags, knotty pine, coast, and meadow, poured over with sticky yellow sunshine. This wine absolutely must be palate-warbled to be appreciated.
________
Into the 2nd hour open now, this pour is a stunning perfume. It's like nothing else I know that isn't sous voile. It's perched on the edge of lightness and preservation, of robust skeleton and tendons, very forthcoming but only after sitting open an hour.

Vino da Tavola Aglianico more

5/8/2024 - MuddyBoots wrote: NR

Earthy, leather, slight funk on the nose. Plummy fruit behind. Touch of heat. Quite full on the palate - cleaner fruit than on the nose. Plummy dark and juicy fruit - slightly mysterious but with a touch of dark orange zest I associate with Aglianico. I sense this is just on its way to developing some complexity - certainly there is already some interest. The structural components of the wine are deeply buried in ripe fruit. Long. Lists at 15.0% and you can believe it is every bit of that. Likely always will be a little warm but this has much to commend it. Wait....and then maybe a bit longer.

2020 Fantini Edizione Cinque Autoctoni Collection Limited Release

Vino da Tavola Red Blend more

5/5/2024 - t_slips wrote: 89 points

Sort of disappointed with this Fantini. I actually prefer the standard Edizione Cinque Autoctoni to this Limited Release. This 5 Italian grape blend, mostly Montepulciano and Primitivo is very concentrated, which is probably the intention. Yet, I found it to be very fruit forward; almost overpowering which made it difficult to identify other aspects of the wine. Very intense notes of cherry and blackcurrants. Softer acidity and not so memorable tannins.

2020 Monte Rossa Pusterla Vino Bianco

Vino da Tavola Invernenga more

5/2/2024 - penguinoid Likes this wine: NR

Colour: medium gold
Nose: medium intensity, secondary, youthful. Dried apricot, lemon, lemon peel, underripe pineapple. Heritage apples. Honeyed. Almonds? Ginger? Wet stone, saline. Hay.
Palate: dry, medium(+) acidity, medium alcohol (12%), medium(-) bodied. Dried apricot, lemon, lemon peel, underripe pineapple, kiwifruit. Heritage apples. Honeyed. Ginger? Wet stone, saline.
Conclusions: very good. I wasn't expecting much from this for whatever reason -- I worried it might just be a novelty -- but it's a genuinely interesting, complex, and unusual wine. Hard to pin down the flavours and aromas precisely. 100% late harvest Invernenga, an autochthonous grape cultivar from Brescia, Lombardy, Italy, and grown in a vineyard within the castle grounds of Brescia -- said to be the largest urban vineyard in Europe. P&P (pop&pour), not decanted.
Seal: screwcap.

1980 Filippo Sobrero & Figli Vino da Tavola

Barbera more

4/29/2024 - MJHDC wrote: NR

Took a flyer here, a lot of good notes on Filippo Sobrero, who is described by the Wassermans as a very traditional producer, including within Monprivato and Villero, that can produce disappointing but sometimes potentially magnificent wines. Not sure where this Barbera was grown, but in a lesser vintage, it was really not much more than a pale rose that, while sound, never developed after opening into anything of real interest.
