Nivole Moscato d'Asti 2024

2024. Another sentimental pickup at the store tonight. My wife and I used to get the 375 mL bottles of Nivole at a local liquor/wine store in Lincoln in the early 1990’s and that store just announced they were closing after 63 years. 😢 — 3 months ago

That always stinks when your old reliable stop & shop just gave you 2 the ol' shuttering down the doors🚪 news!

I really think it was all of the big box wine/beer/spirits stores that opened in the last few years that is making it harder for smaller single location businesses to keep going.

That’s sad about your local retailer!

Great wine; 14 abv; classic Nebbiolo character, roses, tar, violets, tart cherry, cranberry, white truffle. Great acidity, almost valtellina in character which these days is the highest compliment for Nebbiolo — a month ago

Tenuta delle Terre Nere

Prephylloxera La Vigna di Don Peppino Etna Rosso Nerello Mascalese Nerello Cappuccio 2021

Etna: Poured into a decanter about an hour prior to service; enjoyed over the course of dinner. The 2021 pours a deep garnet color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears and some fine sediment. On the nose, the wine is developing with Bing cherry, Asian five spice, porchini, oregano, crushed gravel and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. Another stunner from this incredible, own-rooted parcel in the Calderara Sottana contrada featuring vines over 140 years old. Insane. Drink now with some air and through 2041. — 2 months ago

@Peter van den Besselaar, the label says 1987, your note says 1986, and Delectable says it’s 2000 — hmmm, Who’s on First?

@Doug Powers Thx. The label! I don’t know why Delectable describes 2000, tried to change the identified wine but that does not work.
