Vino de la tierra de mi familia paterna, Voghera, Provincia de Pavia Italia. Tenía en frente mío un plato con pechuga de pollo a la parrilla, ensalada de lechuga y tomate, un tamalito verde que no dejaba de mirarme y arroz blanco, el Cavit se porto muy bien, con una textura suave, untuoso, se apreciaron los frutos negros, moras, cerezas, ligeramente herbaceo, equilibrado, de postre degustamos unas manzanas verdes con queso gouda moqueguano, excelente! — 8 years ago

Azienda Agricola Barbacarlo di Lino Maga

Barbacarlo Oltrepo Pavese Red Blend 1994

Черри-кола, сухая малина, клюква, ревень, темные пионы, можжевельник, прелая хвоя, жирная земля. Почти не ощутимая газация, сочное среднее тело с естественной кислотностью и интегрированными танинами. Свежо, полно, ещё первично, без явных возрастных признаков. Жовиально и ещё чуть первично, но при этом фактурно и глубоко, в отличной форме. — 7 years ago

5 Stelle Sfursat di Valtellina Nebbiolo 2010

Senses immediately overloaded, in a good way, with a bouquet of lavender tea, smoked cherrywood, tobacco, cedar, vanilla, and as someone here astutely observed, Alpine herbs. Buried underneath that is wild mushroom, wild raspberries, and cherries. Lasting nice finish, though a bit heavy on the alcohol compared to its southern nebbiolo cousins, but given the sforzato Amarone-like production process, this makes senses. One of the finest reds I've had in some time, certainly on par or better than the other nebbiolo I've tasted.

Better yet, I scored this for a steal of a price at a local Total Wine who either thought this was too old or didn't know what they had.
