Rossi Marino

Fulcrum

Wildcat Mountain Vineyard Pinot Noir 2018

Small production, 150 cases, aged 11 months in French oak, 35% new. Met winemaker David Rossi who makes small batches by buying fruit from top vineyards and using a shared winery for crafting his small batch wines. Deep Ruby with a full range of berry aromas with wafts of earthy notes. On the palate blackberry & ripe cherry with oak and subtle spice. Fine tannins, lingering ending with fruit and some dusty spice. Nice now but let’s see if it aged well. I’ll grab a bottle and put it aside. Check back! — 2 years ago

Paestum Fiano 2019

Nice with a few years of age. The 14.5% does come through a bit more than I was hoping, though perhaps that also gives it the depth of body that I enjoy. Flowers, minerals, some bitterness, good acid. — 4 months ago

Just awesome. Big and tannic but so elegant. More formal notes later. A beast. Needed a day and now it’s so juicy and full of red and black fruits. A beast but a sexy one. — 5 months ago

Frog's Leap

Hilltop Rossi Vineyard Red Bordeaux Blend 2017

Frog’s Leap. “Hilltop” Rossi Vineyard Cabernet blend. Nose of dirt, currants, anise, plums, just slightest hint of violets. Palate is plums, currants, herbs, a bit of cocoa, some tobacco, pepper, and subtle tannins. Will be interesting to see how this ages since it’s so enjoyable with an hour of air now. — 6 years ago
