Wine Spectator: Aromatic, with a yeasty overtone of bread dough and accents of ground clove, cardamom and ginger to the black currant, candied lemon zest and marizpan notes. Well-meshed and v...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Deep ruby. Ripe cherry, spicecake, garrigue and an exotic hint of flowers on the intensely perfumed nose. Sappy and fresh as well as dense, offering intense raspberry and ch...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good full, dark red. Deep, pure, brooding aromas of black cherry, licorice and leather, plus a hint of oak spices. Offers lovely aromatic lift but comes across as tightly wo...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2007 Barolo Cerretta is serious juice. This dark, imposing Barolo covers every inch of the palate with deep layers of dark Serralunga fruit. There is tremendous excitement...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Bright, dark red-ruby. Distinctly feminine, pinot-like aromas of raspberry, flowers and truffley underbrush. Less outsized than the Costa Grimaldi but compellingly silky on ...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good bright pale yellow. Lemon, hazelnut and almond on the somewhat musky nose; showing some oak today. Then thick but fresh in the mouth, with strong stone fruit flavors sh...

Wine Spectator: This is really packed, with heather, golden raisin, dried pineapple, fresh white peach, quince and honey notes all woven beautifully together. The long, pure, singing finish h...

Wine Spectator: Boasting menthol and eucalyptus-tinged cherry and plum aromas and flavors, this red is broad and well-balanced in its structure, with fine length. Approachable now, but better...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The single-vineyard 2008 Cortona Syrah Migliara fleshes out beautifully in the glass with layers of dark red fruit that fill out the wine's broad shouldered frame nicely. The ...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Bright ruby-red. A sexy, highly perfumed bouquet displays fresh red berries, potpourri and white pepper, with hints of allspice and anise adding complexity. Spicy and alluring...

Burghound: Here the wood is not subtle though it does not dominate the distinctly sauvage red currant and dark berry fruit aromas trimmed in earth and briar notes that are also reflected...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2008 Barbera d'Asti Ai Suma, made from late-harvested fruit, is a stunner. Firm yet elegant tannins frame dark blueberries, blackberries, graphite, sweet herbs all the way...
