Hi Dave,

It sounds nice to be able to take samples home!

Galloni is really high on F. Allessandria's recent releases.

I've had a number of their 1998 Monvigliero's over ten years ago which were released very cheaply and praised by Parker. I wasn't crazy about them, even at the nice price. They weren't bad but like you say, the intensity was missing. I have a 1996 Monvigliero of theirs as well that I probably won't open for awhile.


BTW, I think it's spelled Allessandria with two s's.
