Tenuta Scarpa
Scarpa (Antica Casa Vinicola Scarpa)
Rouchet Rosso da Tavola Ruche 1998
Medicinal and savory, opening up to an almost Burgundian prettiness about two hours in. It didn’t last, but altogether fascinating (if not consistently pleasurable). — 8 years ago
Scarpa (Antica Casa Vinicola Scarpa)
I Bricchi Barbera d'Asti 2008
Probably the best Barbera I've ever had. Bright fruit, acres of depth and tremendous finish. — 9 years ago
By the way., you should not be so humble! Uncork your 2011 Georges & post it!!!!
One of the absolute best 2011's I have ever had......ever! I'm not bullshitting. I haven't posted it yet because I haven't received my allocation due to high temps in S. FL.
It was my favorite during our tasting and I can't wait to get the case I ordered.
All kidding aside guys.., call him tomorrow's and order it before it's gone. Truly insanely lush. Awesomeness in a glass & by far the absolutely BEST priced Georges Cab in Napa. I literally dare you to find me one that is better. Yes......it's that good! Call Palmer Emmitt for pricing info on a case purchase. I've never led you wrong on a wine. Trust me on this one! It's the undiscovered gem 💎 in Napa.@Ryan Carey

La Selva di Moirano Dolcetto d'Acqui
Would like to have this abut fresher. Raspberry, orchids, tar, black tea, some raisins. Almost like a cocktail of Nebbiolo, burgundy and amarone. Lots of fun with lamb neck ragu — 7 years ago

Vermouth di Torino Rosso
Best Negroni I've had: Plymouth gin and Scarpa vermouth. — 8 years ago
Scarpa (Antica Casa Vinicola Scarpa)
Tettimorra Barolo Nebbiolo 1999
Powerful, medium bodied Barolo, with lots of texture, exquisite notes of spice, dark fruit, and lively acidity. Delightful with pork loin, making for a memorable winter evening. — 9 years ago
Scarpa (Antica Casa Vinicola Scarpa)
Barolo Nebbiolo 1974
Still relatively fresh, tar, Earth and coffee at times, while sweet rose and floral at others. On the palate more meaty and finished just a tinge hot although this was ok after some air and with food — 11 years ago
Scarpa (Antica Casa Vinicola Scarpa)
Riserva Speciale Barbaresco Nebbiolo 1969
Just utterly fucking unreal. Still feral right out of the gate but then bloomed into a shooting fuckin’ star. Insanely precious. — 7 years ago
Scarpa (Antica Casa Vinicola Scarpa)
Casa Scarpa Barbera d'Asti
To use a wine term.. good
Scarpa (Antica Casa Vinicola Scarpa)
Selva Rosa Vino da Tavola Red Blend 1985
This was a fun one. Somebody called it Roman wine, 40 AD. Seems about right. Walnut, caramel, underlying dried fruit, with acid to keep its pulse. No blend, all albarossa. — 9 years ago
Tenuta Caparzo
