Vigneto Saetti

Rosso Viola Lambrusco 2017

DD: 16.02.2018
Черри-кола, чернично-ежевичный конфитюр, пряная слива, молодая морковь с ботвой, тархун, мята, лепестки фиалки, экстракт темного пиона, горькая корица, чуть лакричный финиш. Мягкая игристость со спелой, сладкой, но не липкой фруктовостью и подсушивающим послевкусием. Максимально легко и непринуждённо, но при этом насыщенно и не без определённой структуры. Не прыгает выше головы, но делает то, что должно. И да, это идеальный аккомпанемент к пицце.

@Riddley Walker You get such great Italian wines where you are. Ever in DC? Let me know.

Indeed! And a small piece of paper with the message from the winemaker hidden under the capsule was a nice touch too 👍🏻 @Rob Brobst III

I actually bought this bottle in Ukraine 😉 With politicians playing their games I’m not sure I will get a US visa any time soon being a Russian citizen and all 🤷🏼‍♂️ But I’d like to revisit DC one day! (Stayed for a month there many years ago when I still was in high school) @MaJ CappS

Ramato Allegre Vineyard Pinot Grigio

Not quite as interesting as the 14. This vintage runs fruitier and a tad more conventional, though still terribly enjoyable. — 8 years ago

KBS Chocolate Coffee Stout

Hard pour if you’ve a desire to to see a head of coffee foam in dark cappuccino. It loiters a little with unctuous lacing that stick in place in globules, sporadically spaced. Dark chocolate scented, where brew, and coffee bean mix with toffee and sweet cedar, vanilla bean and nougat. Chocolate-pecan-caramel turtles amp up with mocha and espresso, a tiny pinch of black pepper, dark tobaccos, bakers chocolate, and brown sugar coated malt chocolate. Sweet initially, then revelatory as it sorts its relationships, then bitter, with pine, acanthus, chicory, walnut and pecan shell. Warm, rich, and covered in monster muck. Like a cigar smoke filled station wagon driven by a dark chocolate Santa after an Italian truck stop espresso run being slowly pulled into a tar pit. One for the ages. Happy holidays, ya filthy animals!

Note di Grillo

Wonderful Sicilian natural wine! Deep gold (let’s call it light orange) in color. Hints of grilled lemons with a hint of smoke. Beautifully “funky.” A true winner! Great with appetizers! Thank you Franky Bella for this selection. — 7 years ago
