Luciano Sandrone

Le Vigne Barolo Nebbiolo 2013

This afternoon was a treat having the 2013 Luciano Sandrone La Vigne Barolo.

On the nose was some alcohol at first that blew off with a little time, cherry, raspberry, strawberry, licorice, tar, clove, rose petal, leather and earth.

On the palate you will find cherry, raspberry, plum, licorice, clove, mint, spice and dusty earth.

This wine is full bodied and a powerful mouthfeel with medium + acidity and medium + to high smooth sandy tannins that leads to a long elegant fruit finish. A beautiful wine that won't disappoint. Enjoy the coming weekend and please stay safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷

Great wine with roasted chicken. On the sweeter side of most Oregon Pinot Gris, enough acidity to hold up. Well made, love it for the money! — 9 years ago

La Bohème Yamhill - Carlton Brut Rosé 2015

Elk Cove’s sparkling isn’t produced every year, but when it is it’s a stunning sparkler! This vintage doesn’t disappoint. Lovely mousse, strawberries on the nose and delicate toast and berries with lychee in the palate. It is simply delicious. Glad I have another! — 7 years ago

Ardbeg

Dark Cove Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

My cold is persisting, so it is going to have to answer to another shot of old peaty. The dark cove is a good quality Ardbeg, but a little boring. The 10 still excites me every time, even after 2 decades of drinking it. Sadly, it does not make as good of a toddy as the Ardbog. I trust the medicinal value is not diminished! — 9 years ago

@Gary Westby Keep lying to yourself but that's not a cold you've got...those are seasonal allergies - and should be treated everyday throughout the 365 days!! 😁

@Henrik Poulsen- I like your idea- "preventative Ardbeg"!

9.0

Tiny estate run by Jerome Gradassi just on about 5Ha, working with simple and minimal work in the vineyard on colder side of the appellation with sandy soil - he delivers small production of great Chateauneuf with much freshness, aged in used oak the wine gain texture and complexity - vines date back to the 70s with mostly Grenache and some Mourvèdre - great value for money it will have very well in the cellar for a few years 😃 — 10 years ago
