A Delicious Supertuscan, supple, silky tannins and generous fruit. Long finish with a bit of spice box and an excellent price per quality ratio. Who would have thought such a great wine could be had under $30. Would be fantastic with a nice plate of pasta!!

This bright Brunello is accented by generous tones of clove, spice and dark berry fruit. The mouthfeel is rich but also lively at the same time and overall this wine would make a great companion to lamb or grilled steak.

Pian delle Vigne’s Brunello delivers abundant notes of dried prunes and fruit marmalade. It has a smooth and velvety feel and granular tannins.

This is one of those pleasurable Sangiovese wines that seems perfectly engineered for cheesy pasta and hearty lasagna. The acidity and general freshness is perfectly integrated and ready to pair with fatty foods.

This beautiful wine (gorgeous both in terms of execution and presentation) offers rich layers of mature fruit, chocolate, espresso and exotic spice. The wine’s texture is incredibly smooth, soft and persistent.

This is a delicate and traditional Chianti Rufina Riserva with enticing notes of mature black fruit, exotic spice, molasses and resin. The wine has aged nicely and shows elegance, sophistication and smooth tannins as a result (it also boasts an excellent value price). Pair it with red meat and game dishes.

Deep, dark and penetrating aromas of prune, plum and blackberry are followed by drying tones of slate roof and mineral powder. This is a particularly heavy and thickly extracted expression of Brunello with spicy, green flavors and astringent tannins.

Corte Pavone’s Rosso di Montalcino gives you a hearty drinking red that would pair with game, wild mushrooms and most meat dishes. You get plump fruit and exotic spice overtones that give the wine sophistication and personality.
