Pi Vigne Barolo Nebbiolo 2019

Solid Barolo. 50 euros in a restaurant. Light and not super bold like most Barolos, but pleasant. — 2 years ago

Enrico Morando

Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato Vigneti e Cantine Ruche 2019

Wine is deep garnet. Smells like violet, decomposed bramble and slate. Immense aroma. Overwhelming. On the palate violet, cherry and strawberry. Elegant hermes leather and a touch of wet slate. Quite delicious. It wants to be a refined Sangiovese but it's more than that. Quite nice. — 3 years ago

Château Cap de Faugères

Côtes de Castillon Merlot Blend 2011

2011 vintage. Estate with 46 hectares of vineyards owned by Silvio Denz (also Faugères, Péby-Faugères and Roycheron in Saint-Emilion , and Lafayrie-Peyraguey in Sauternes). Sometimes criticised for the modern style, the truth is in the glass. And this Cap de Faugères from a difficult vintage absolutely delivers for the price (9,90 euro). Deep red colour with only a slight evolution at the rim. The nose is a bit jammy, but the mouth is much better with the ripe fruit balanced by the acidity and well-tamed tannin. It may be not the most subtle wine, but it's a very attractive right bank Bordeaux at its peak and a strong effort for the vintage. — 4 years ago

Serenata Vermentino di Gallura Superiore 2018

I really like this wine. Consistently good every year. Good weight, acidity. Had a slight bitterness on the end. Some people describe Vermentino as having a green almond aspect. I don’t know what green almond tastes like, but with this I get a taste like when you find a raspberry seed in your teeth and you bite it. — 5 years ago

Le Coste Superiore Barbera del Monferrato 2011

What a pleasure- lush, silky, dark cherries bursting from the glass, forest spice, fairly substantial integrated tannins, well balanced with the acidity. And for under $20. #morandosilvio #barbera #monferrato — 7 years ago

Jermann

Red Angel on the Moonlight Venezia Giulia Rosso Pinot Nero 2011

Moderate ruby red core with amber rim. Sous bois notes dominate the nose with fruit character of raspberry and black cherry. On the palate, it's delicate and light bodied with medium acidity, little tannin, and only 13% alcohol. I have really enjoyed Silvio Jermann's white wines in the past but had not tried any of his reds until this very pleasing Italian expression of Pinot Noir (Pinot Nero). — 8 years ago
