May 2020....lovely smooth & flavourful wine, your typical good CC. No regrets buying this, or drinking it. Had tonight on its own with snacks, tomorrow with eggplant parm, should go great. (91)

Tenuta Rocca Barolo 2010, Docg
Piedmont, Italy$36.95
2019
May 2020.....had with leftover eggplant pasta, nice, wow the tannins were very drying but it was quite delicious in the spectrum of Barolo. Wouldn't drink it all the time but still a fan of a good Barolo.(91)

Rhône, France$25.95
2019/20 (2020 max)
(?) 2020.....had one at some point, was ok as I recall but that's it. Would probably have gifted last one but perhaps a little too aged....drink soon.
March 2021....very nice, went with all the 4 different meals I through at it. An enjoyable GSM.

MAY 2023....at Dianne and Nick's place. Best Rose I've ever tasted, absolutely delicious, could drink this all day long, in fact I easily polished off 2/3rds of the bottle. Dry, elegant, flavourful, smooth (no rough edges whatsoever), very satisfying. Worked great with pot luck hors d'ovaries.
Recognizing this was a stellar year, would absolutely consider buying again. (91)
