Kicking it off: Nipozzano Reserve 2018, Chianti Rufina. A really nice variation on a classic Chianti, light and fruit forward but with a surprising amount of tannins - pretty heavily oaked, relative to a Chianti Classico anyway, it was no Knights Valley cab. Exceptionally balanced and highly recommended.

Just joining!

For my birthday this week my wife and I cracked a nice champagne - Jean Vesselle Brut ล’il de Perdrix (partridges eye). It was great, but it was a few days ago, so no tasting notes.
