Opened in the morning. Then 1 hour decant before pizza diner. Wow, dark chocolat and mokka flavours comes with a velvet package Stunning ! Not a standard Amarone.

Well made pomerol but not really outstanding. Lacking a personal touch and more a crowd pleaser.
Still to young ? I hope so, otherwise a cat in the bag !

The tuscany part of this merlot is very present. The acidity in this wine keeps you away from the flavour
You want from a merlot. Another more than highly overrated and very expensive wine that does not really deliver. Very common in the modern wine world.

Middle of road Barolo with an outstanding nose. Depending your choise of food it will please or disappoint you. Humidor with some accidity flavor is not a big suprise. The price of the bottle is.

Still climbing the hill. Nice fruit and chocolat is covered bij some lazy tannins and acidity. Patience will be rewarded. 94-97

Day 1 A flatliner with a grainy and dusty mouthfeel.
Day 3 More tannins and accidity detected with a little red fruit on the horizon. Very disappointing Vietti. But the label will sell it.

Red fruit, soft tannins and elegant. Not that impressive. Little light on its feets. But better than most of the El Pisons i had.

Introvert and shy. Quality is clearly there. Medium body and no overdone oak and tannins. C’mon grow up !

Very decent Barolo. But not really a high flyer. More fruit than 2 years ago and less tightness to the end. But € 80,= for this bottle, well give my portion to Fikkie (the dog)…

From a magnum. One hour decant. This is for me an ultimate expression of a fruit driven elixer that brings you in an other stratosphere. Superbness !

Well oh well. No it isn’t bombastic. It’s more elegant. Not really a rioja. Drink it between 18-20 degrees. With some spanish spiced food. Excellent !!

Not that impressiv compare to the 2019. But it will likely improve with some years in the cellar.

Magnum, decant 1 hour. Steady Priorat without surprises and -for the better- not over oaked. Still a firm one.

This reminds me of the Caballero sigarets of my granddad. Together with the sour face of my grandma when he lights one up.

Very delicat. Strawberry nose and a more earthy and herbal palat with a light fruit sensation at the end. In a few years it will turn into a excellent or superb wine. Muy muy bien !!

Very well made wine. Buttery with salmiac and salted caramel. Still fresh and very polished. Not the estate graphes so probably the reason for the fair price. Impressive.

Like Cosmo (Vincent Gardenia) said in the movie Moonstruck about the fiancé ( Danny Aiello) of his daughter (cher)…he’s just a baaabbbyyy. So let it be for another 20 years. Better watch the movie. Or take the 1983 cause that one is superb !!

Pfff..takes a few more years. Leather, humidor with spicy fruit but the tannins are in the way. Not very subtle. The tuscan sun left it’s mark.

Still dense etc.. But doesn’t give the structure and feel of a refined Bordeaux. This fruitbomb as it is does remind me more of a good languedock. Takes another 5 years to overcome the density.

Fruit driven with tones of leather and chocolate.
Velvet and fine tannins in good balance. Serious good wine but doesn’t really surprise with dept.

In the karaf for 2 hours. Soft but still a little tight. Doesn’t show a second layer as most of the reserva’s does of the ‘10s. Maybe wait for 3 more years.

Beautiful barolo. Still a little squeezy at the end. Hopefully will it all come together.
Give it 3 more years so i think.

Tight, impenetrable, inky. The way we know a chianti. Terrible after 8 years. How long must we wait to drink this 2013. A bottle that cost me € 60,= but now already € 100,= for not being drinkable. And oh oh what do we like this shit reading the other comments.
