2021 Nervi-Conterno Il Rosato

Piemonte DOC Nebbiolo more

4/6/2024 - MC2 Wines Likes this wine: NR

Some question among the group of whether this was corked or not. To me it was drinking fine but not the best version of itself and next to a Bandol that was on fire it got a bit overshadowed.

Drinks well. Poured super clear. Right in the right spot. Again more dried fruits. A background of baking spices.

Just opened right before serving so still opening up. More dried fruits. Red fruits. A bit of spice. Needs more time in the glass. Lovely.

2002 Roagna Barbaresco Crichët Pajé

Nebbiolo more

2/2/2024 - MC2 Wines Likes this wine: NR

My WOTD. This is what most of the other wines are potentially heading towards but just in a really lovely spot. Dark cranberry and cracked pepper and everything is very well balanced and the elegance is there but it’s a bit more expressive and the age has softened some edges and just all playing together quite well. Not going anywhere but drinking nicely at the moment.

2005 Roagna Barbaresco Crichët Pajé

Nebbiolo more

2/2/2024 - MC2 Wines Likes this wine: NR

More balance between the fruit and the spice and the floral here. More restrained. It’s perhaps a touch more closed than some others but I really like the stuffing of this wine. In the under appreciated flight and I can understand that.

You can see a bit of the vintage here - more fruit and again the spice. Darker red fruits and a nice softness and maybe a bit more dried style. Lots of floral too. It’s an elegant wine from a bigger vintage which comes through in spades.

2/2/2024 - MC2 Wines Likes this wine: NR

Again just a beautiful wine wine. Lots of great fruit. Lots of pepper and spice. I get this flavor that I want to say is milkweed (although who really knows?). Enjoyable but of course quite young.

2012 Roagna Barbaresco Crichët Pajé

Nebbiolo more

2/2/2024 - MC2 Wines Likes this wine: NR

The in between for the 2001 and the 2006 - not quite as intense at the 2006, not quite as refined as the 2001. Not quite as fruit forward although it’s there in the background. More dried leaves and almost a crisp autumn day. Drinks nicely.

2006 Roagna Barbaresco Crichët Pajé

Nebbiolo more

2/2/2024 - MC2 Wines Likes this wine: NR

Darker with more intensity and more power and a bit less acid to it. For a lot of folks this was one of the favorites in the tasting. For sure it was a wine that was just in a really nice place - came out to play right away - although as always there was evolution in the glass. Plums and darker red stone fruit style. Nice wine.

2001 Roagna Barbaresco Crichët Pajé

Nebbiolo more

2/2/2024 - MC2 Wines Likes this wine: NR

Starting the red wines off with a bang. The first vintage and one of my favorites of the tasting. It’s very light and elegant and refined in style. At first perhaps a touch closed but it continued to open with time and had that nice gentleness (aka refinement) that I really like. Bit of floral, some rose hips. Luca’s first vintage and a very good start.

2021 Roagna Montemarzino Derthona

Vino da Tavola Timorasso more

2/2/2024 - MC2 Wines Likes this wine: NR

Starting off the tasting quite nicely. Haven’t seen much of this wine although I think I’ve probably had a previous vintage maybe once before. There’s body to the wine as is normal with this grape. A bit of lemon peel and lots of floral. Very nice and drinking well. Timorasso I’ve heard can age quite nicely and that would be interesting to try but this is certainly ready for business even quite young.

Small bit of sweetness to end the night. Drinks well. From the half bottle. Bit of the orange and something that is not quite the sugar and more the age. Tastes good.

Timuquana BYO (TCC): Lots going on in this wine. It’s lots of fruit and very big and a bit intense. Very young. A bit of the oak. Needs a lot more time to even itself out.

Timuquana BYO (TCC): Just a lot. This wine is a lot of fruit and a lot of alcohol and a lot of flavor. It’s been open for some time but feels like it could have used even more time. Lots going on.

1/13/2024 - MC2 Wines Likes this wine: NR

Timuquana BYO (TCC): Complete and total treat to get to try and quite possibly my WOTN. This was all intense and Harrigan and fresh and hints of fruit but much more in the iron ore and slightly gamey style. And yet somehow a bit clean and well styled for that. Drinks great.

Timuquana BYO (TCC): So much herbal and green and sage and drinking very nicely. Lots going on here. All more of the herbal style and less of the fruit. It’s very nice. Many years left but drinking very well right now.

Timuquana BYO (TCC): More age than the ‘95. Get some sage, herbal, more baking spice in style. Drinks very well. It’s more of the secondary and brawny style but also has all of the energy and verve of a great wine. Drinking really great.

Timuquana BYO (TCC): All plushy and fruity and pretty. Good red fruits. Drinking really nicely. Out of a mag and with a very long life ahead of it. Really interesting to try side by side with the Ausone. The Merlot really comes through here. Very nice.

Timuquana BYO (TCC): A definite treat to get to try this wine. One of my favorite producers and a wine that I’ll seek out all the time. Super yummy. Beautiful and clean. Lots of black fruit and very nice structure. A bit more lines to it than the L’Evangile. Really lovely. For many a WOTN and definitely a strong contender.

Timuquana BYO (TCC): Just rocking. Absolutely love these wines and this was no diffferent. It’s leather and fruit and great vibrancy and style. Drinking really well. There’s still the new world fruit but such very nice balance and style to it. I’m enjoying it a lot.

Timuquana BYO (TCC): Haven’t had many old Spanish cabs and so fun to get to try this. Felt like it got a bit overshadowed with some of the others but still a nice wine. Well structured, young-ish but a lot of the flavor is more in the secondary style.

Timuquana BYO (TCC): Drank next to the 1988 of this (which was out of mag). This was in a bottle. A bit more lift than the ‘88 and maybe a bit more evolution and in fact it seemed like the single bottle might have helped the wine a bit to develop some more. Spice and fruits.

Timuquana BYO (TCC): Fruit and lightness and spices. This is drinking well. Very nice and easy and a good change of pace from some of the bigger wines we had this night. It’s more one-dimensional in style and missing that next level of depth from some of the best ones.
