Community Tasting Note

Saturday, April 27, 2024 - SangioFest, Volume III "It's my favourite spot" (Chicago, IL): I'm gonna make a confession -- I just don't really get the Stella di Campalto hype. They're very pretty wines on the whole, but there's always a lightness on the palate that often feels lacking. Also, these earlier vintages can be a bit inconsistent. Others liked the SdC flight much more than I did; I wasn't a big fan. This bottle showed a distinct balsamic and strawberries volatility that I didn't care for, and there was more of the volatility on the palate for me as well. A darker, less than typical fruit profile, with the fruit coming off cooked rather than fresh.
