Have a 2018 Tofanelli on the way. Matt Morris's Heritage with Francoise Peschon winemaking talent makes this a tough act to follow thinking his SVD's worth exploring as well! -

4/6/21, 3:26 PM - I hear ya Mark1. The more big reds that I pick up that are soooo not ready for prime time.....the more I’m loving the youth of a deliciously modern chard. Who figured?
