Arboreus Umbria IGT Trebbiano 2015

Excellent orange / skin maceration wine with some age on it. Enjoyed at Monterey in midtown with tonight’s special Lobster El Diablo (spicy tomato sauce with 3lb lobster flambéed in tequila). Good acidity and some good flavor with the spice. — 8 months ago

Belle Epoque Rosé Brut Champagne Blend 2012

This was too young and way too tight. It was minimally expressive. Floral and red cranberry. Palette was expansive but it was tightly wound. Finish was short. This needs much time. — 5 years ago

SP68 Bianco Terre Siciliane Albanello Muscat of Alexandria 2022

Worried it might be a little natty for my taste at first but the funk blows off quickly to reveal a fragrant & expressive wine—orange peel, orange blossom, fennel pollen, pumpkin and a gorgeous salinity.

It’s a wine that really sings with seafood. Had it with Provençal Cod with olives and fennel.

Her winemaking talent really shines in the texture—particularly the finish. Definitely a lot of skin contact here, but the tannins are elegant and the finish is crisp, salty and refreshing —no graininess or bitterness.

Like Stanley Tucci says to Arianna, “I could bathe in this wine”

We visited the winery last month. Like you, I am not a fan of too much skin contact in white wine. This and Elisabetta Foradori’s whites have just enough to add some texture and complexity without the bitterness on the finish that many have! By the way, we loved our visit there.

Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

The 2016s just came in so I had to rip one open. This might be the best SC ever and that is saying a lot. It’s certainly the best one for early drinking as it was singing with only a splash decant. A return to dark fruits, cedar, orange peel. The life of the party. — 7 years ago

Just dont do the ‘16 Anderson Valley. It was not rocking out of the gate like the Sonoma Coast is.
