Community Tasting Note

• Tim Heaton Likes this wine:

  July 30, 2023 - Really? This can still be found for under $50?! That's crazy considering what's inside the bottle - on PnP, but also considering its cellaring potential. Medium+ body, perfectly judged oak expression, very fine-grained, sweet tannins, etc. This is letting you know just how great it is while at the same time, if you're listening, can hear just how good it's going to be, too. I've gone through a few of mine too quickly by some measures, yet I have zero regret; it may shut down, and I'm going to choose to live in the moment, the future being a quite uncertain thing. 'excellent' was first and final thought. Again, crazy that it's under $50. Another brilliant decade (likely more) still ahead. highly recommended.

  2/13/24, 2:59 PM - Just wanted to thank you for the notes on this.
  Just enjoying after a 1/2 bottle decant for a few hours.
  This is such a treat. A real Tuscan rustic beauty 🥰
  And yes I was able to buy for $50 a few months ago. Unreal.
  Cheers!

  2/13/24, 3:58 PM - a win! I was just in IT Oct-Dec; I always transit through JFK for Emirates. If you're in metro area, maybe we'll be able to meet. I'll do the same in '24 with any luck. winestrategies at Gmail

  2/13/24, 4:02 PM - it's obvious why I went through a few after tasting the first one, yes? If people knew the whole story, this would be $100+ all day long. Probably more.

  I'm in Queens but in the northeastern part, Bayside, NY.
  It's really nice area with some great places for food and wine.
  Ironically, one of my favorites is called Il Toscano lol
  The Parkside in Corona is very well know and always a fave...
  Now you got me hungry lol
  Anyway, I'll zip you an email. We can meet on your way to or from the airport one of these days.
  Cheers!
  Marc
