    January 20, 2024 - Also nice with the lamb stew. At its aging limit.

    July 13, 2023 - Interesting is not a winning description but in this case it is true. Not a perfect wine but at least it has character. Bit vegetative but nicely balanced and easy drinking.

    November 12, 2021 - This bottle is not from my cellar although I do have some. We are out for dinner and I grabbed a bottle from my wine merchant. Bright cherry with some tannin, not necessarily classic Dolcetto, too bright and too clean but totally worked with the dinner. I would delay having another to next spring I think will evolve more.

    March 11, 2021 - Boy are the notes all over on this wine. I liked it very cherry and spicy with a great finish. Good everyday red with some personality and at $14 reasonable. Will see about bottle variation

    May 16, 2020 - Just decent, like that friend your other friend brings to parties who never offends anyone but never adds anything to any conversation with his/her presence. He/she just SITS there. That's this wine, nondescript fruit with okay body but absolutely no point of view whatever, and after a few sips you give up trying to talk to it.
