What's Super Mario's favorite fabric? Denim, denim, denim! Love these labels...the wine is far from overblown, actually. What you would expect from Shiraz, without wanting to wipe your tongue with a wet rag after drinking a full glass. Coming soon to Fiola Mare (get it while the temperature stays low...and we have Miyazaki Kobe with truffles! — 11 years ago

Tasted after a private tour with Elena and Lucca of the family estate. They are "crazy" Italian in all of the best ways. Expressive, talented, creative, artistic and masterful, Lucca's grandfather Mario was thought to have lost it when back in the early 1900's he began buying discontinuous plots of land because they exhibited different geologic characteristics. Townsfolk would laugh as "Crazy Vietti" would haul his donkey and cart to the different vineyards when they all farmed and lived on a single plot.
That breadth of knowledge defines Vietti today. This Barbera d'Alba is worlds apart from their Barbera d'Asti, a testament to Mario's vision.
True to form for Barbera, but more akin to Nebbiolo on the nose and finish. This one intrigues if not familiar or thought Barbera might not be for you (...that was me...). — 11 years ago

Best wine yet ...also most expensive. Almost perfect. Just enough fruit, just enough body, just enough smoothness, all combining for nearly perfect vino. Recommended by "Buca Mario's" Wine Ferry (jolly chubby guy that looks like the guy on the bottle w/o a beard)! — 13 years ago
