Winemaker Notes The 2018 Tenuta San Guido Le Difese Toscana is distinguished by a good structure and is extremely supple, making it very pleasant and easy to drink. Blend: 70 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 30 % Sangiovese Critical Acclaim James Suckling A medium-bodied red with plum and cherry character. Walnut and bark undertones. It’s creamy and savory at the finish. Drink now. Wine Enthusiast Aromas of star anise, dark-skinned berry, wild herb and toasted oak form the nose. A blend of 70% Cabernet and 30% Sangiovese, the wine’s bright, linear palate offers red currant, prune and a hint of licorice before a coffee-bean finish. Racy acidity and taut close-grained tannins provide the framework and tension.

A delightfully fragrant and fresh Sauvignon Blanc. Lovely aromatics: grassy, stone fruits, candied lemons. Vibrant mouthfeel with crisp acidity balanced by tangerine, citrus fruits with wet stones and minerality on its texture. Surprising density and layers of flavor. Hard to put my glass down. Loire meets Marlborough in the heart of Chianti. Fontodi delivers again. --Jack Madrid

94 points Falstaff: "Bright ruby with a slight purple shimmer. Opens on the nose with ripe, vivid fruit of blueberries and dark cherries, some liquorice in the background. On the palate gripping, dense tannin, unfolds into countless layers, still seems very young, but has a lot of substance, hearty and long. (11/26/21)"93 points Bruce Sanderson (Wine Spectator): " This succulent red is hallmarked by very pure expressions of cherry, raspberry, violet and mineral. Firmly built, with energy and a persistence that extends the fruit, tobacco and mineral elements on the finish. Drink now through 2030. (May 2022)"

This is a Paso Robles estate Rose. It’s an interesting Grenache, Mourvèdre, Cinsaut, Counoise and Carignan blend. The color is a beautiful salmon. The nose is citrusy and floral. This wine’s acidity is lively on your palate with a predominance of grapefruit. The finish is clean and I think this would go well with something spicy such as Thai food. Perhaps a little overpriced.

Blindfaith Pilot Wine#1 Lovely colour – not much age here was my initial impression Nose: Dark flowers, vibrant blackcurrant, blackberry. Floral, fruity, slightly dusty black fruit note. Not sure what I'm talking about there, but it shouted Tuscany at me. Tangy, bold – intense black fruit – lively acidity and firm but smooth tannin. Raw spice and herbs again suggesting youth. But punchy and delicious. Guess: Tuscan, BDX Blend, 2015 vintage? Reveal: Wasn’t too far off! My favourite of the pair. -John Mobbs

PRODUCT OVERVIEW:The Fontodi Estate is one of the crown jewels of the region, with a portfolio of stunning wines made from the native sangiovese grape (This is the estate behind the iconic "Flaccianello" IGT). Fontodi wines, year after year, receive numerous accolades from the wine press and are sought after by the most ardent collectors of Italian wines. The reason is simple: the estate's non-interventionist approach to winemaking showcases the unique and viticulturally rich terroir of the land.Known as the "Conca d'Oro (the golden shell), Fontodi is an amphitheater-shaped property located in the valley south of the town of Panzano that benefits from a high elevation, clay/shist oil, generous light, and warm, dry weather with wide diurnal variations in temperature.* 94 points & Editors' Choice, Wine Enthusiast Magazine:"Delicate aromas recalling scorched earth and truffle mingle with mocha and botanical herbs on this 100% sangiovese. Elegant and enveloping, the supple palate features fleshy plum, orange zest, and baking spice before an espresso finish. Soft tannins offer supple support." (5/1/22)

Pianoalto Barbera d'Asti Superiore Nizza 2014 by Bava 🇮🇹 I love Barbera 🍇 Color's deep crimson Aromas of tar, mocha & exuberant cherry Palate of spiced cherry, black pepper, raspberry, charred oak, soft leather, high acidity w/ clove & tobacco leaf. Firm tannins cross paths w/ black cherry, sensuous complexity; this is a wine that will reel you in and keep you wanting more. Needs a serious decant, numerous hours. More pepper, rustic rich cherry, blackberry & balsamic unfold as time goes on 4.2🌟 --Demalbray

Fresh nose, cherry, raspberry, strawberry. Med bodied, same impression as at nose, red fruits juice, tannins are firm, very long on fruits.

Pale straw yellow. The interesting freshness of a summer beach - lime, green apples, then the roundness of honeydew. Light body, medium acidity, astringent. Citrus in the palate to a medium finish with a tiny hint of minerality. It paired ok with tagliatelle with shrimps and asparagus, and lobster with butter and lemon, for Margaret’s birthday celebration with the Williams. Overall a good wine but it lacks the minerality of an Etna Bianco and it’s too expensive for what you get.
