Strega is an interesting Italian liqueur...better described below. I only sporadically enjoy it, but it's fun and tasty at each sip.

"Strega is an herbal, saffron-infused liqueur deeply tied to the secret world of witchcraft. Witches are said to convene in Benevento to perform rituals and honor Il Noce, the sacred walnut tree. (The lower part of the logo shows witches dancing with demons around Il Noce.) According to legend, Giuseppe Alberti, son of a grocer, saved a witch from falling out of a tree in the woods. In gratitude, she gave him the recipe for an elixir, which the Alberti family began selling in 1860, perhaps as a curative or restorative.

The liqueur's proprietary recipe is a mix of 70 herbs and spices which include Ceylon cinnamon, Florentine iris, Italian Apennine juniper, Samnite mint, fennel, and saffron. Saffron is the key to Strega's signature yellow color and it shares the spotlight with mint and juniper as the most pronounced flavors within the herbal mixture." — 7 years ago

Day 3: Big, black chocolate nose, with baked blackberry, black olives, and charred beef ribs charging from the glass. The floodgates have finally opened, and it was worth the wait! There is fresh cocoa bean pods and a jungle of flora; rosemary and iris extracts and an oatmeal raisin aspect to the perfuming.
Just the right texture for the pungent hothouse welcome: grippy and coarse, with a bitter chocolate and raspberry interplay, and a single unforgettable graphite and smoky slate backbone; unwavering in the churn of black currant, pepper, eucalyptus, leather and tobacco. Léoville Poyferré's high octane new world Malbec that puts a LOT of stick about! It also has an elegance, as all good dominatrixes should! You'll get a kick out of this! #LéovillePoyferré #bordeauxandburgers #argentinawine #Argentina #malbec #malbecmalbec #newworldmeetsoldworld #CuvelierLosAndes #andes #grandmalbec #ucovalley #uco #mendoza — 7 years ago

Purple. Purple. Purple! Lavender, iris, and violets on the nose. The palate, however, reveals salted caramels, old-fashioned cream cola, and beautifully integrated, layered flavors. — 9 years ago

'99. Last bottle. The best Sagratino the we've had thus far. Iris, the Something, gave us a great story and history to accompany the wine. Almost like having Matt Kramer at dinner. — 9 years ago

Crushed black cherry, overripe black plum, beef blood, smoke, roasted herbs, turned gravel, warm stones, iris. Pure, mineral, juicy attack, long herbal/mineral presence on the finish. Charmingly rustic tannin, raw, almost N. Rhône-like, with a sweeter profile. — 6 years ago

2016 vintage. Distinctive and very floral. White peach, rose water, raspberry, guava, iris, lemon curd, strawberry bubblegum. Palate seems almost manic and all over the place, but in a less obnoxious way. 75 Primitivo 25 Aleatico. — 7 years ago

Iris and I love this wine - it somehow has both a really nice acidity, with a gorgeous richness - very few whites can pull that off. As Raff says, a Pinot Noir made white. We'll be drinking more of this. — 9 years ago
