August 2020....OMG, so good. I could drink this all night long. Mid weight, smooth, complex and refined. Alcohol barely noticable. Could have bought a case and never tire of it. Enjoyed with cedar planked salmon.....yummmmmy! (92)

Fattoria Di Basciano Il Corto 2009, Igt Colli Della Toscana Centrale
Tuscany, Italy$22.75
really liked....served at Cycle Therapy dinner at our house in 2014?
Sept 2018....had with eggplant pasta.....with half hour aeration, it was lovely going from a little gritty at first to deliciously smooth. (next night with chili, equally good).....will have to pay more attention to Chianti Rufina in future.
Quartz Reef Pinot Noir 2010, Central Otago
Central Otago, New Zealand$36.25
June 30 2017 with cedar planked salmon...distinct NZ taste, seemed a little hot but in balance, smooth, lots of flavour, quite enjoyed with a little air time but would probably pass on buying a second bottle (90)

California, Usa$29.95

Antinori Pian Delle Vigne Brunello Di Montalcino 2007
Tuscany, Italy$69.95
2016-17 (gift to Tina) (think it was Valentine's day.
...opened it to celebrate Crystal's new job....Crystal loved it, I enjoyed but was underwhelmed, was expecting more. Very refined, mature, smooth....felt like it lacked some pizzazz....all in all I will give it a 91 but for my palate not worth the coin.
