Community Tasting Note

  • Harrie wrote: 88 points

    June 19, 2019 - A funnny wine. Sweet, fruity and powerful it is. You’ll be happy with the Jachello if you like the primitivo wines of this world or occasionally venture into Veneto with its valpolicellas and amarones (would be fun to run against a Zyme Kairos). A score of 90+ is easily in the books.

    If Pinot noir is your thing, don‘t bother here.

    88 is three quarters the Pinot drinker I’ve become and one quarter the Amarone fan that accelerated my appreciation of red wine two decades ago.
