Sipping Fine Wine

9.0

Made from Garganega, pale lemon yellow color with aromas of tropical fruits and floral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, melon and lemon citrus with nutty notes and lively acidity. Smooth finish ending with fruit and mineral notes. — 21 days ago

Interesting blend of Carmenere (75%) and Merlot (25%) from the Veneto. Dark berries, cocoa and black pepper aromas. Spicy pallet with big red and black fruit. Hint of soy sauce. Lots of firm tannin and length on the finish. Bold and interesting. — 3 years ago

Very different style of Soave (if you have Inama in mind, for example). More direct, less structure, but very clear tasting notes, and an elegant minerality. Buttery finish, without being cloying. Really enjoyed it — 3 months ago

The 2018 Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Riserva Binomio is hauntingly dark and floral, seducing with its rich mix of grilled herbs, plum sauce and dark chocolate. It floods the palate with medium-weight textures and polished red and black fruits, yet beneath is a core of salty minerals and lively acidity that adds both depth and energy to the experience. Lightly structured and wonderfully refined, this tapers off with length, leaving inner violet florals and a bitter twang of currant to linger through the otherwise-juicy finale. Binomio, a collaboration between Inama (Veneto) and La Valentina (Abruzzo), nailed the 2018 vintage. It could use some time to soften a bit through the finish and for its aromatics to evolve; but otherwise, this is already irresistible today. (Eric Guido, Vinous, October 2022)

The 2020 Foscarino displays a beguiling mix of crushed oyster shells, slate, dried pears and lemon oil. It’s round, verging on opulent, with an inner sweetness; saline minerals add a tactile feel. It finishes fresh yet potent. Peach and vanilla custard nuances are punctuated by sour citrus. $25.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, January 2023) — 8 months ago
