2016 Sulin Casorzo DOC Bright red. Very fresh and floral aromas and flavors of small red berries and aromatic herbs. A very well balanced, dainty wine that offers lots of personality and only 5% alcohol. Made with the Malvasia di Casorzo variety. A bowl of fresh red fruit and a glass of this a day will keep the doctor away. Vinous 91 2017-10-09
2012 Verbena Brunello di Montalcino Aromas of dried fruit and hot stones follow through to a full body, soft and silky tannins and a fresh and vivid finish. Another outstanding Brunello for this producer. Why wait?
