SP68 Bianco Terre Siciliane Albanello Muscat of Alexandria 2017

Similar to two previous notes. An outstanding delicious natural wine. Pale Orange in colour with a little cloudiness. Dried grass, honeysuckle, apricot and skinnsy aromas. Luscious on the palate with a skinnsy bitterness. Savoury peach, quince and apricot. This is an example of an excellent natural skin contact wine and why young people in particular love wines such as this. Thoroughly delicious. No need for further cellaring. — 5 years ago

Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2017

Thought it would be fun to check in on the 2017 "Classico" while I patiently wait for my 2017 Riservas to arrive (long story). Popped and poured; enjoyed over several hours out of Burgundy glasses. In the glass, the wine is deep ruby color with a transparent core. Medium+ viscosity with no obvious staining of the tears. On the nose, ripe cherrys with tar, herbs and organic earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium++ tannins and medium+ acid. The fruit set is confirmed and despite the firm structure, comes across almost round and chewy. She thicc. Long finish. The 2017's are drinking well right now and noticeably better than my last note. Have confidence these will drink well through 2032. — 4 years ago

Castiglione Barolo Nebbiolo 2017

Dry but not too much, big and bold and needs time to breathe. About 40min and it was delicious. Price was about 45 or so but it was lovely for a nice occasion. — 4 years ago

Versante Nord Terre Siciliane Nerello Mascalese 2017

Only moderately aromatic, barely present dried strawberry and kind of generic cherry aroma. Palate shows this is very well made, with good structure, but also strongly acidic and tannic. May just be shut down and will blossom with time, not sure. — 5 years ago

Sella & Mosca

Riserva Cannonau di Sardegna 2017

Medium intensity nose sports loads of tangy cherry and raspberry, along with a whiff of sandalwood and a note of sandstony/crushed rock minerality. In the mouth it’s balanced, reasonably concentrated, and bright. Flavors tend toward cherry liqueur and finish with a savory twist. Not as full bodied as some Cannonaus (only 14%). Nice dinner companion. — 5 years ago
