Wine SpectatorVery rich, almost raisiny with a full body that builds on the palate. Lots of ripe tannins. Long finish. Closing up now, but should awaken into a very fine wine. Best wine from here in ages. Best after 2006. 580 cases made.

Fontodi Flaccianello della Pieve 2007
Winemaker Notes #8 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2010 Flaccianello combines all the wild and old-world characteristics of the Sangiovese grape with the modern vinification techniques of what may be the top winemaking house in Tuscany today. The wine is like a taming and training of a beautiful black mustang stallion that has spent just enough time in the wild to retain its fiery disposition. It opens up with brambly notes of berries and currants, cloves, lavender, violets and a hint of bittersweet chocolate. I wonder at the grace of the wine as I delight in the first sip that is supple and cool on the mouth but full of warm flavors that light up the palate with bright notes of cherries and strawberries, tempered with touches of earthy leather and cherry-nut chutney. The wine crashes into the mid-palate on a wave of currants, blackberries, and more, riper straw-berries as it balances itself at the same time on pure tannins and pinch or two of new, vanilla oak. The finish…oh the finish…Well made Sangiovese never disappoints and the Flaccianello rolls on and on seemingly forever. Finally it fades with light herbal notes…a hint of mint…a dash of licorice basil…then it's gone like a shooting star winking out in the night sky.

Justin Justification 2015
Appearance: Dark ruby purple core with a medium rim and slight staining on the glass. Aroma: Aromatic red and black cherry and blackcurrant fruit, complex barrel spice of vanilla, licorice and cinnamon, and subtle dried leaf, cedar and camphor notes. Palate: Full bodied, fresh with red and black fruit and baking spice on entry with savory fall leaves, cedar pencil and leather meeting sustained sweet spice on the midpalate. The finish is long and complex with wild cherry, camphor and savory elements wrapped in firm, balanced tannins. This is an elegant, wonderfully balanced wine that mixes complex fruit and savory elements with generous texture, all while staying fresh on the palate. The 2015 JUSTIFICATION is a versatile food pairing wine with an affinity for game fowl like pan seared duck breast or roasted pheasant, but is equally at home with a prime filet mignon served with a dollop of garlic and herb butter.

Chateau Montelena Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
Nose: Fresh raspberries tee off a parade of red fruit punctuated by rich strawberry jam, and bolstered by vanilla, black pepper, and violets. Palate: There's a latent weight and density on the palate along with fine-grained tannins that have just begun to slowly integrate with the rich, dark fruit of the vintage. Finish: The texture and mouthfeel of the wine build on the transition to the finish, which strikes a fine balance between the subtle acidity lingering just below the surface and the concentration of the fruit and tannins.
