November 3, 2023 - Consistent with previous tasting notes. I initially thought this might be showing some slight oxidative notes, but those blew off after 15 minutes in the decanter. Just a really strong wine.

July 31, 2023 - Detected coconut when first poured. Settled down with time in the glass. A big wine that paired well with spaghetti and sausage in a red sauce. great vintage. Drink now to 2024.

June 30, 2023 - An Epic Summer Wine Weekend - Year 2; 6/30/2023-7/2/2023 (Muskoka, Ontario, Canada): [Tasted Double Blind] This pours medium garnet in the glass with light bricking. The nose shows woodsy spice, cedar, dark cherry, rosemary, a kiss of balsamic, and mesquite wood smoke. Quite an expansive and appealing overall aromatic profile. The palate is round and rich of dark cherry, with deep and rich woodsy spice. Tannin is medium minus, and acid is medium. The lovely finish is quite harmonious and appealing. All in all this was my second favourite of this flight and was impressive stuff. On reveal I was a tad surprised as I've usually thought of Aletsino's Monosoli as overdone in terms of ripeness, extract and/or oak, but this generally feels traditional if a tad on the ripe side of traditional. Great showing and a wine I'd love to cross paths with again.
