Love these darker roses. 2020 is more savory than ‘18, but still has some of the pickled watermelon and rhubarb I liked in the past. — 7 days ago
Stumbling on a Dolcetto from Fenocchio is like finding a discarded sketch from DaVinci. Took a while to open up but gave hints of dark fruits. Relatively dry (despite the name) with grippy tannins. With weeknight shish taouk. — a month ago
Wasn’t feeling it. A little dull with some raspberry. Effervescence was nice but lacking the Txakoli zip that I like. — 3 days ago
From the Vite Colte co-op. On the lighter side - sweeter, with higher acidity and muted tannins. Overall less brooding. Ok for a weeknight. — 3 days ago
Cofermented Nebbiolo and arneis. Red fruits, bit of potted soil, faint effervescence. Piedmontese beaujolais?! Perfect chilled with sausage and pepper pizza. Thanks to the Vicia team for the new wine shop. — a month ago
Hidden gem. Made with fruit from 3 hilltop vineyards. Raspberry jam, rose petal, leather. Beautiful tannins. Another one that delivers the next day. Perfect with Pastaria, while taking care of 3 kids, solo. — 3 days ago
The post COVID slump buster. Classic Barolo profile - cherries, dried rose, deep tannins. Tight on day 1. But love that I can have a glass, recork bottle and know it’ll taste even better the next day. — 7 days ago
Great surprise. Tart lemon, great bracing acidity, flintiness. Perfect with while roast mahi in achiote paste. — a month ago
Ooph, too obvious. Stewed fruits, hearty 15% ABV, bit of a chore to finish. — a month ago

Last minute purchase from corner grocer for Fathers Day caprese stuffed chicken and pomodoro. Reminded me why I love Chianti. Cherry candy, herbs, medium acid and tannins. Just delicious. — 3 days ago
