Verbiage

Plenty of dried fruit with figs and sultanas, as well as mushrooms. Full-bodied, yet integrated and polished with fine tannins and a fruity finish. From organically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but another year or two will bring it even more together.

Dried berries with licorice, tar and dried fruit, such as raspberries. Not raisiny, though. Full-bodied, medium-sweet and chewy and rich on the finish. Creamy and layered. Lovely for sipping. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.

A full-bodied red, yet it’s tight and polished with intense, chewy tannins, but ever so long and deep. Impressive black-truffle, ash and mineral undertones. Flavorful finish. Solid and thought-provoking. From organically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but better in two or three years.

Lovely density and focus with fine tannins that show structure and beauty. Walnut, slate and ash. Flavorful and persistent. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

Verbiage

Underbrush, pressed rose, forest berry and camphor aromas shape the nose on this earthy, elegant red. Linear and firmly structured, the palate features red cherry, blood orange, licorice and a hint of rusty nail set against taut, refined tannins. Give it time to fully develop. Drink 2024–2030.

Ronco dei Tassi Sauvignon Collio DOC 2016 Wine Enthusiast 01/09/2020 91
Verbiage

This bright, elegant white has rather restrained varietal aromas evoking hawthorn, hay, citrus and wild herb. It’s racy and tangy, featuring white grapefruit, green melon and flinty mineral flavors alongside crisp acidity. KERIN O’KEEFE
