This picturesque estate lies in the commune of San Casciano, just outside of Florence. Joshi Goldschimdt is a farmer first; his pristine vineyards contain Sangiovese, ranging in age from 5 to 35 years, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot vines, averaging 20 years in age. The vines are tended organically, the grapes, hand harvested.
The Cornazello Rosato that this wonderful organic estate crafts each year is not your typical Rose, and that is highlighted with their 2019 effort. The wine absolutely sings in the glass– a beautiful Rose of Sangiovese rounded out with a drop of Merlot. 91 Points from Eric Guido who absolutely gushed about the wine. You can read his review below:
“The 2019 Il Corzanello Rosato is refined and fresh in the glass, showing dried florals with citrus-tinged peach and pear on the nose. Silky textures soothe the palate, delivering ripe orchard fruits with a tug of zesty acids and minerals, gaining a hint of sweet spice toward the close. The finish is long and full of energy, and with a hint of yellow tropical fruits. This Sangiovese Rosato is seamless and so enjoyable from start to finish.” –91 Points, Vinous

The finish is long and full of energy, and with a hint of yellow tropical fruits. This Sangiovese Rosato is seamless and so enjoyable from start to finish.
Almondo Roero Arneis Bricco delle Ciliegie Le Rive (Gold Label) is made from the estate’s oldest single plot of vines within the already heralded Bricco Delle Ciliegie (hill of cherries). This is only the fourth vintage of this label but it’s already considered by many to be one of the best white wines in all of Italy. Juicy peaches, pears, and a hint of almonds on the nose. The mouth is dense and fleshy, full of bright fruit, minerality and salinity notes with a touch of spice that’s the highlight of a finish that lingers and lingers in the best way. It’s an absolute treat that I really wish I could snag more than once a year.
What separates this newly released Valpolicella from its peers is the grapes used were grown for this wine specifically. This isn’t Amarone seconds, it’s a precisely crafted and seductive rendition of the Corvina grape that will appeal to Red Burgundy lovers. Highly versatile and elegant, Ca La Bionda’s Valpolicella mesmerizes with red and blackberries, anise and Asian spices with serious depth. The new 2021 is tightly wound with smooth velvety tannins. It’s so juicy and so dang food friendly. Folks are going to love this.
Dave Phinney had a field day on this one making a blend from indigenous Italian varietals. He would settle on a native grape to Puglia and Nero D’Avola to add body and grippy tannins and Barbera from Alba for the lift and acidic backbone. The results since the first rendition have been both mesmerizing for consumers and maddening for locals. But now in the 8th iteration, the Locations ‘IT’ has become a firm fixture amongst the biggest and baddest under $25 Italian reds.
Crated from the wonderful estate just outside of Florence in Tuscany, Corzano e Paterno once again churned out an incredibly special and delicate Rosato of Sangiovese. This is easy sippin’, harmonious, food friendly Rose that has the backbone to stand up to fresh pizza. The Rosato is a seriously sophisticated blend that offers more savory than sweet notes. It’s an absolute treat to drink now and will continue to drink well for a few years at least.
