Vino Aromatizzato Barolo Chinato Nebbiolo 1970

Had never experienced this after dinner wine with its slight sweetness framed by cleansing bitterness that comes from Nebbiolo. Enjoyed it! — 6 years ago

Calabretta

Cala Cala Vino Rosso Etna Nerello Mascalese Nerello Cappuccio Blend

Probably my favorite “cheap” Italian red. Though tannic, well balanced w dark rich fruit, high acidity, and 14% al. Earthy in a great way. Great nose. Long finish. Nice alone. Or drink w meats and/or robust pasta. $18. (One weird item: there is no vintage year on the bottle). — 7 years ago

Vecchia Cantina

Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Sangiovese Blend 2015

Full bodied (for its varietal). Black fruit, raspberry jam and a tad of mint on the nose. Balanced mature acidity. Tight, low/medium tannins. An all around excellent specimens of VNdM. — 8 years ago

Good to drink, good fruit with some clear volcanic notes. not as good as '16 or '15. — 8 years ago

Fiorano (Boncompagni Ludovisi)

Principe di Venosa Vino da Tavola White Blend

Botte 47. Phenomenally complex and constantly evolving. Initially savory with some animal fur, toasty honey (aged semillon) notes, slight star fruit. Then it evolved into dried flowers, mushroom, and dark fruit - reminded me of a young Barolo. Then black tea, green tea. Then strong dried spearmint, honeyed toasty complexity like the '81 Lopez de Heredia. Medium bodied with slightly elevated sparkling acidity. Not intense, but persistent on the palate. To borrow a phrase from Veronelli- It burrowed into my memory. I hope it made me forever better. — 10 years ago

Light tannins as well that balance things out beautifully. Overall light and easy drinking
