2018 Fall dinner for the Confrerie St Etienne.

I love this producer’s Rosé sparkler for the price, and while this was good, it was just that and nothing more. Nothing about it made me want to keep revisiting, but nothing was off putting. Clean, slate driven, very little yeast. Limestone and Apple.

Il Rosé di Casanova Prugnolo Gentile - Sangiovese Rosé Blend

‪ravishing rosé ✨ alert: I included this $13 ‘17 #LaSpinetta Il Rose di Casanova in an event I did in Westchester last night, and true to its name, it sent hearts racing ❤️ . Refreshing but uncommonly flavorful (cherry, peach, maybe some orange peel), with zippy tang and a long, lovely finish. Bonus: the label features the majestic rhinoceros 🦏 etched by genius artist Albrecht Dürer in the sixteenth century. If I had a summer house, this #wine would be stocked like soda. 🥤 ‬

Neil. That is a new descriptor for me as in Tennis Balls. I guess the aroma when you pop a fresh can?

@Bob McDonald - it’s more petrol, synthetic rubber- ever since I heard someone say “a can of new tennis balls” that’s what I smell... definitely in the good sense.

A great Alsatian house. You have to be in the mood for that sliver of lands style of Riesling for sure! So good.

Vürsù Vigneto Starderi Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2013

Here’s a beauteous Barbaresco from La Spinetta that we’re pairing with a homemade Bolognese – one of Mike’s (@deked1) favorites for his special day. 🥳 🎉  #happybirthday

This wine is comprised of 100% Nebbiolo, from Barbaresco DOCG, in the Piedmont region (NW) of Italy. 🇮🇹

Fun to learn that the artist behind the rhinoceros on the label -- originally created in 1515 by German artist, Albrecht Dürer – was both illustrated and carved into wood based only upon writings and descriptions of the animal, without the benefit of the artist ever seeing an image of one. 🦏 🦏

Bravo; ben fatto!  👏👏👏👏 Perhaps its central role on this label is meant to signify the creativity and ingenuity of the winemaker behind this beautiful bottle of wine. 🍷🍷🍷

This wine is beautiful, balanced, with strong structure – vibrant acidity, firm tannins, high alcohol, concentrated and complex aromas and flavors. It is medium garnet and offers developing aromas and flavors of sour cherry, strawberry rhubarb, anise, tomato leaf, dried oregano, violet, nutmeg, clove, cedar, and leather. The finish is long.

La Spinetta Vürsù Vigneto Starderi, Vintage 2013, ABV 14.5%.  Big thank you to @hoythill2011 and @sunfishcellars for the recommendation. 🙏🙏

Riesling Cuvée Henri 2007

This tastes like when you sprinkle lemon juice over sliced apples for preservation... plus ¿ginger? Not mad about it, just a little too borderline Moscow Mule. — 8 years ago
