Duca di Salaparuta

Vajasindi Làvico Sicilia Nerello Mascalese 1824

Gave this baby a whirl on a whim and it didn’t disappoint. I was scared of it coming from a larger producer but it had depth and nuance. It did need time to open. — 6 years ago

Unico Gran Reserva Especial Ribera del Duero Tempranillo Blend

Grand wine, loved it. Lots of life, rich with so many layers. I believe it’s still had more age-ability still. — 8 years ago

Feudi di San Marzano

Primitivo di Manduria 2012

Wow. Who knew we would find one of the best bottles on our trip so far at a "hypermarket" selling for €30. Primitivo, I understand to be similar to zin, is one of the two great reds produced in Puglia. Very elegant, easy on the palate and yet held up with red orechiette. — 9 years ago

I was pleasantly surprised by this. My friends said propolis and camphor. Nice freshness, minerally, pretty delish with shrimp and grits — 10 years ago

Passopisciaro Sicilia Nerello Mascalese 2007

I might confused this wine with southern Pino Noir or Nebbiolo from sandy soils. Highly mineral to the nose, silicon burnt grass, gum and strawberry and a lot of fruits. Good tannins , very well balanced and have a potential to grow. Old vines (100yr ) and lava soils, French oak malolactics , fermentation. Vanilla and allspice in secondary fragrances. — 7 years ago

Rich and spicy. '15 is a bit youthful. Silky mouth feel. Slightly earthy. Cinnamon. Medium tannins. Hard to argue with the $20 price point. Great value. — 9 years ago

Piano di Montevergine Taurasi Aglianico 2000

This is one of those nights. Not sure how the food is going to come out. Cooking with no particular wine choice in mind. But when it all comes together...wow!!

I paired this wine with gravy, courtesy of
@Peter Coticchia

The nose was clearly deep red fruit. Color was bright red on the brim. On the tongue, medium body and loads of cherry. The acidity was high, but still very balanced and well structured overall. A pure delight!!!

Wish I could have tasted! How was the sauce? Or as Brooklynites say "gravy".

Pintia Muestra Toro Tempranillo 2008

Intense at first in the nose with muddled cherry and blackberry in liquor, this wine is in control with perfectly integrated oak and fine silky tannin. I expect much more of a beast in the glass but this is beautiful and classy. The fruit on the palate has mellowed out and adds spice and grilled herbs. #toro #tintadetoro aka #tempranillo #vegasicilia — 10 years ago

Way too easy to drink. And cheap. Cheap and easy. Just what I like. Mildly acidic dry fruit finish, soft red cherries, no sweetness but nothing harsh, either. Just really lovely. #nerellomascalese #sicily #italy #rosato #dogsofdelectable — 10 years ago

This was an exciting, complex, delish wine. Tart red fruit, great acidity, fine tannins and the perfect amount of forest floor/ herbal/ funk. Bet it would be amazing in a few years. But woops glad I didn't wait — 8 years ago

Big fan. Biiiig fan. Reductive as fuck, at first, but it blows off and opens its petals to you, just like El Guapo would have wanted. Meaty, full, with a sour cherry edge, it's delicious. I want more. — 9 years ago

Reserva Especial Unico Ribera del Duero Tempranillo Blend

9.2

1985, 1990 and 1991 blend. Medium tawny colour. The nose is expressive displaying complex aromas of nail varnish remover, tobacco, dark plums, cherries, cedar, mint and walnuts. It is dry in the mouth with a firm acidity and velvety tannins. It is slightly warm but well-balanced by a nice concentration and very long finish. The only thing I don't like about it is that the fruit seems to be dead, just lifted by the volatile acidity. — 10 years ago
