Cuvée Beerenauslese Welschriesling Chardonnay 2017

The grand finale! Dad brought this. I tasted apricot and agave. Tasting notes were marmalade and barley sugar. I can’t say I could pin “barley sugar” but I am stashing that descriptor for future tastings 🤪 — 2 years ago

Tenutæ Lageder Römigberg Alto Adige Kalterersee Classico 2017

This is what Vernatsch is all about!
Light (11.5% alc) and crystal clean yet quite expressive with cherries and plumes and cranberries. There’s also a whiff of lemon peel and a stony, herby undertone.
Crisp & light on the palate and very, very juicy with a pinch of herby spice and a mineral backbone. Despite all it’s lightness this has loads of precision, character & personality. Love it!!

Vigneti delle Dolmiti IGT Pinot Bianco 2016

Lovely Weissburgunder from a solid biodynamic producer. Stone fruit, light mineral, edelweiss, lemon curd with a rounded edge. Hard to imagine a wine drinker who would not find this refreshing. Terrific QPR at $12-13 a bottle.

From the tech sheet:
Grapes are gently crushed and fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks followed by maturation for approximately 4 months on the lees.

At that price, you really can’t beat this bottle (worth so much more). Alto Adige for the win.

Couldn't agree more. We drank this, and a few Terlan offerings on our last trip around Bolzano/Trento. Tasty stuff!

This one is a winner. Delightful and graceful, my guests all loved it. We served it with a miso, coconut salmon curry and it was a beautiful pair. So much juice for the money! And the frizzante really is wonderful.  — 4 months ago

Vogelmaier Südtirol-Alto Adige Moscato Giallo 2016

More prep for my visit to Alto-Adige in a couple weeks and I’m hoping to stop into Ladeger. Fits my love for expressive aromatic whites. Fragrances of grapefruit and green resin with peaches, apricots, nectarines, and lychee. And always good texture. — 6 years ago

Trebulanum Terre del Volturno IGT Casavecchia 2012

Old school rustic Italian, quite dark fruited, salty. Medium body. Very tannic on the back end, very structured wine. Substantial acid. Needs a couple hours of air to come together and show properly. Pair with 🍝 for a pretty pretty good time. // turns into something special on day 2 — 7 years ago

I applaud your patience to get to day two on so many wines here.

@Jenks honestly, most red wine I drink these days I prefer on day 2. When I open a bottle I usually immediately decant half of it to my trusty 375, cork it, and stick it in the fridge. 2-3-4 days later these babies sing!

@Jenks the bigger, more conventional red wines I mean. The super natty, lighter / carbonic / no SO2 stuff doesn't usually hold up so I pound that. Heyo.

Dolomiti Schiava 2023

This wine pours up in a medium-dark ruby color, with some rosy lavender hints around the rim. The nose hit me as almost unpleasantly funky. And I like funk. There is an extremely earthy quality to the smell, almost burying the dark fruit. The mouthfeel is a bit thin, and the palate shows flavors of plum, black currant and blackberry. Notes of cola become more noticeable on the finish, putting me in mind of a Pinot Noir. It is a clean, fresh sip, with no oak to get in the way. The tannins are tame, so pairing with chicken is probably a better idea than beef. — 5 months ago

Tenutæ Lageder Porer Südtirol-Alto Adige DOC Pinot Grigio 2019

This wine is a much more complex Pinot Grigio than typical. It has a mix of fruit flavors including peach and citrus that are not typical of most Pinot Grigios. A top quality Pinot Grigio. — 3 years ago
