Antica Vigna

Riserva Vigna Regina Sassella Valtellina Superiore Nebbiolo 2017

At Pesach so glassware was hit and miss. Lots of miss.
This is consistently a marvel of high altitude, no toast(steamed)barrel, various wood Nebbiolo.
After 10-15 mins open the nose is like the most intense, ethereal fraises de bois. Intermingled with fine rocks and wood. Bright!
On the palate, it’s redolent of high altitude tiny berries, transparent and lively, gripping your lower front gums with a hint of licorice.
The only issue may be finding the generosity to share it.

Cavallotto

Vigna San Giuseppe Riserva Bricco Boschis Barolo Nebbiolo 2019

Really fantastic Barolo! Paired it with a vodka sauce pasta dish and it showed well with and without the food. Would definitely revisit. — 4 hours ago

Antica Terra

Botanica Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

One of two bottles opened in honor of International Women’s Day a few nights back. This was terrific, although perhaps a touch Shedonistic for an Oregon Pinot. — 2 months ago

Antica (Antinori)

Townsend Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Not as bold and full body as other Atlas Peak wines which is probably more in line with the Italian wine making influence. — 6 days ago

Vigna Cicogna Greco di Tufo 2019

9.2

Don’t see it as often as I’d like, but I almost always pick up a Greco and always enjoy it! Florals florals florals, fresh garden, wet stones, orchard fruit - quite complex and this is best at cellar temp. Silky sensuous on palate, gorgeous body w/nice heft & balanced integrated acidity. Really strutted thru finish. Would like to revisit in 5 yrs — 25 days ago

Scarpa (Antica Casa Vinicola Scarpa)

Tettineive Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2019

Birthday dinner wine. Clay pot, dried cranberry, a little balsamic. Jared cooked ribeye, sautéed mushrooms, risotto and salad. Great pairing! Knocked it out of the park! — a month ago
