Fizzy Barbera from Piedmont (Monferrato). High alcohol, sour cherry flavors, very high acidity. I chose this wine for a pizza pairing and it worked very well. 🍕🍷👍🏻 — 6 years ago

Biodynamic garnacha from Priorat. Good acidity, on the palate and on the nose I could smell/taste ripe red/black fruit in great balance with the delicate hints of chocolate/vanilla from the barrique. Very interesting label! 👍🏻🍷 — 6 years ago

Nino Cardinale

8.7

Alto Adige is a great source of Italian white wines. This Pinot bianco (weissburgunder) is fresh and mineral, but also shows ripe fruit as apple and pear together with fresh herbs. Paired with a white pizza (no tomato sauce) with zucchini and ricotta... very good. — 6 years ago

8.8

Lazio igt is not among the most famous Italian appellations, that’s why this was an interesting discovery. 100% Syrah, very balanced, good body, fresh aromas as geranium, just ripe red/black fruit , medium + acidity, integrated tannins. Different from any other Syrah I’ve tried. — 6 years ago

8.4

Very fresh white from Catalunya. Low alcohol, good acidity... paired very well with a pan sautéed sole. Gewurztraminer gives body and a little oily texture. White melon on the nose and on the palate. For once a non Italian wine 😅👍🏻 — 6 years ago

8.7

Sangiovese with a part of Cab. Easy to drink. Fruity, good acidity and medium - body, great with simple Italian dishes. It’s a simple wine where the cab gives a little help to the body and tannins. Great value. — 6 years ago
