A balanced albeit a lighter brunello that was a good partner with a steakhouse visit! Good value for money. — 2 months ago
Rich black and red fruit that are surprisingly bright. Lots of tertiary notes of spice, mushrooms, forest floor and muted vanilla. Drinking fantastically well right now. — 5 months ago

Floral on the nose with plenty of vanilla, creaminess, and bright apple, pear, and light citrus on the palette. Good minerality and acidity. — a month ago
Having said I would not drink another over-ripe zin, I found this artisan primitivo from the hillsides of Puglia well worth the experience! Blackberries and blueberries with a touch of well integrated oak, black pepper, and chocolate along with the 15.5 ABV. Remarkably balanced. Bartolo only produces a max of 3000 per vintage - none exported to the USA. — 2 months ago

The most remarkable Tempier I’ve had. Deep ruby with some purple tones in color despite the wine’s vintage. Integrated and soft tannins to complement good acidity and a M+ finish. Black and blue fruit supported by tertiary notes of mushroom, forest floor, and earth. Probably at the peak of this wine’s potential. — 6 days ago
