Fratelli Alessandria

San Lorenzo di Verduno Barolo Nebbiolo 2017

This is showing beautifully right now, with a beguiling blend of orange peel, cassis, and anise aromas that carry over to the palate, where black cherries, balsamic notes, and a delicate mix of earthy autumnal spices provide a sensuous background. Soft mouthfeel with fine tannins that peek out a bit on the long finish, where the spiced citrus seems to last forever. Paired perfectly with pan-roasted wild mushrooms and dry-aged ribeye. — 4 months ago

La Scolca

Black Label Bianco Secco Gavi Cortese

Pungent aroma at first, almost like a farm. But then it opens into sweeter notes like peach and stone fruits. Finishes with a strong minerality. Enjoyed with a fennel salad and couscous and it paired really well! — 3 months ago

Silvio Giamello

Vicenziana Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2021

Here is a confession! I try very hard to quit delectable and give it up: But then the wines come along with a personal connection. I visited Silvio in the early 2000‘s and we tried his 2003. Great wine in a hot vintage. His son was born 2003. Ever since i have a soft spot for his wines. # This one is quite spectacular. Drink now it is f….great or keep for 10 years +. Classic. Sold out at Kermit Lynch. I bought just one bottle. 😢 Enough said. — 8 months ago

Well I will stay. After these very nice comments. But seriously I like the reviews the folks post on this app they are much better than Vivino.. Reasons. 1.) I am getting up there in age and although this might sound silly drinking is just harder on your body. 2.) This makes it more difficult to sample through a lot of wines - spitting is not my thing! - unless i sample 10+ wines. 3.) I got pretty much into the habit of a glass every night. Not necessarily a good thing.
