Gallina Barbera d'Alba 2013

The older vintage is lovely but I love how bright it is. Very rich and fresh bouquet — 7 years ago

Sassontino Casanova Della Spinetta Toscana Sangiovese

Drinking an excellent Sangiovese while eating good pizza is Tuscany la dolce vita. Good acidity, tobacco, dried cherry. I liked the 2004 just a bit better, though this is still a top shelf wine. The wine is actually too good for pizza but what the heck. — 8 years ago

Expected this one to be DOA, but this was a really nice elegant old zin from the Eschen Vineyard. Dusty spicy old vine zin fruit in the best way possible. This is what CA wines should be all about. — 9 years ago

Pico Maccario

Estrosa Monferrato Bianco White Blend

I am generally a Moscato fan. The earlier reviewer commented that this had little depth after the first taste, and I agree with that. You get the sugary flavor, but none of the pine needles and honey of something little the La Spinetta. — 8 years ago

Liqueur Fernet


Interesting. A Giorgio Rivetti/La Spinetta Fernet.

Nose reminds me of Branca , but palate is deceptively light and almost thin. Interesting, but didn't work for me.
