Wally's Vineyard

Bonavita

Faro Nerello Blend

2007. Racy acidity and gripping tannins. Cranberry and blackberry. Darker than a typical Etna rosso. $30 from Wally's Wine, Los Angeles. — 10 years ago

Tasca D'Almerita

Tascante Ghiaia Nera Nerello Mascalese 2011

The Prisoner Wine Company

The Prisoner Napa Valley Zinfandel Blend 2012

Had the 2012 (can only find the 2012 magnum on Wally's Wine and Spirits Website, and well worth it as it's above and beyond the '13) on our honeymoon in Kauai at the St Regis Kauai Grill. Wonderful wine that barely needs need to breathe and can be pretty much paired with anything. — 10 years ago

Passopisciaro

Contrada Chiappemacine Sicilia Nerello Mascalese

2011. Tight and tannic at first, needed 2-3 hour decant to show its true colors. Very subtle aromas of red fruit and cut grass. High-toned acidity, smooth mouthfeel. Classic etna. $55 from Wally's Wine, Los Angeles. — 10 years ago

Damilano

Lecinquevigne Barolo Nebbiolo 2009

From Wally's. Lingering warmth and delicious finish. Would recommend for a starter Barolo. Makes home cooked meal that much better. — 11 years ago

Tantara

Cuvée Lucia Pinot Noir 2009

50/50 Gary's & Pisoni vineyards. Glad it was an 09. Big style, but very balanced. 14.4 alc, but before you knee jerk low alc hippies go nutty, try this Santa Lucia Cadillac. Gary at Wally's picked a winner. — 11 years ago
