Le Macchiole Bolgheri Macchiole
(about 1 year ago)Medicine-y cherry, blackberry and burnt toast on the nose. Very dry and earthy on the palate. Very firm tannins, a bit too young. Some earth and charcoal on the finish. Great with red sauce!
Le Macchiole Bolgheri Macchiole
(about 1 year ago)This wine needs time to breathe as seems young. Given several hours of decanting, this wine shows some very nice qualities. The mouth-feel of this wine is very nice and you can tell it is well made. It wanders a bit too close to the oak monster for me, but has some very nice garden vegetable hints and a nice sour cherry finish. This is a nice value at the price I paid.
