Giacomo Brezza & Figli
Barbera d'Alba Superiore 2020
2020 vintage. Apparently, Brezza Giacomo e Figli is a certified organic producer in Barolo, known for crafting high-quality Barbera d'Alba Superiore. This was a well-structured Barbera I found best decanted for 30 minutes. Black fruit, herbs and white pepper on the nose. Medium body with notes of blackberry, tart cherry. and dried herbs and a play between moderate acidity and tannin with a exceptional medium length finish. This was perfect with pasta puttanesca and tuna and white bean salad. — 8 months ago

St Innocent Winery
Temperance Hill Vineyard Riesling 2022
2022 vintage. As good as a quality German Riesling, I’m surprised I’m the first to rate this wine. Made in a kabinett halbtrocken style — light, slightly sweet just shy of dry. Check. Unripened peach and something oily (?) on the nose. A good amount of acidity with a long finish. Like a good Riesling the sugar and acid are well-balanced wine. There is a line of minerality underneath apricot and pineapple flavors. — 8 months ago
