Thanks Ken, figured this would a good place to get off the fence! Was going to add two more details - “trending up” and “trending down” but didn’t want to be the new guy rocking the boat…

[T_Schaffler]

@craig vanderah

Wish I had bought more Giacosa in the past. I’d love for it to be in my top 10 too. I noticed you have Soldera and Salvioni. Do you own much Biondi Santi? Great list!

@Martin Petersen

I’ll play

1. Bruno Giacosa
2. Produttori di Barbaresco
3. Montevertine
4. Weingut Keller
5. Elio Altare
6. G. Mascarello
7. B. Mascarello
8. Soldera
9. Salvioni
10. San Giusto a Rentennano

Shows my preferences in style I guess …

///Martin

Craig, I own one single bottle of Biondi-Santi (1985) but in general I have found these wines to lean and unbalanced for me when tasting them. Poggio di Sotto, Cerbaiona (Molinari) and Monsanto are in my Top 20 so they reflect my next level of preferences. Giacosa - I’ve been buying from 1996 - 2004 when released and then done some back-filling also. I’m really happy about this as I think neither price nor quality is so attractive any more …
