Hell yes. Delicate, balanced big refreshing bubbles for summer. This Italian sparkler from the Veneto is comes from master Barolo-maker Livio Sassetti as part of his war against over-sulfured Italian bubbles. Pink pomegranate, candied tangerine peel and guava notes with a hint of plum - from the Merlot, no doubt. Elegant, zesty and flamboyant with an in-your-face creamy finish. Extra-dry spumante, like extra-dry Champagne, is in the range we call "off-dry" in absolute terms. For reference, wine that is still in the absolute dry category can have up to 9 grams of residual sugar; this wine has 12; cocacola clocks in at 110. — 7 years ago

Not gonna lie, upon opening it sort of smelled like using a matchstick to cover up manure. Luckily sulfur notes blew off with some time to reveal cranberry, tart cherry, wild strawberry notes, a pleasant amount of manure, mushroom, and violet perfume. Easy drinking with sneaky complexity; light in color yet medium bodied on palate, with a sour cherry candy finish. — 8 years ago

Pepper, blackberry, licorice nose. Lifted fruit, great balance, there's a nice dark cherry Sangiovese character. — 7 years ago
Big notes from ox, oak, and citrus to start. A bit honeyed, but opens into a nice citrus punch. A bit of a chameleon. Needs food, would be difficult to enjoy on its own. — 8 years ago
This is how a Sauvignon is supposed to be. Straight forward, crispy, mineral and bright. No candy fruit, shortcuts or mild easy flavor. Good job — 8 years ago

Classic Brunello. Ripe plum, some oak and alcohol. Dusty tannins and medium acidity makes this ready out of the gate. — 7 years ago
