Borghi Ad Est

Friuli Pinot Grigio 2020

This is not your vapid grocery store plonk #pinotgrigio from the early 2000s. Subtle green apple, pear, wet stone nose. In the mouth is where this #fruili PG shines with vivid acidity, brisk green apple & pear, good palate texture. — 10 months ago

Ghemme Collis Bredemae 2016

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple of hours. No formal notes. As others have stated in previous TN’s, this is simply too young. The fruit is gorgeous and the winemaking is very good however, I find it to be too primary for my liking. Even after a few days, it was unwilling to develop. It’s balanced with sufficient structure to age well…and I suspect quite gracefully. I swooped up a couple of bottles and I’ll plan to forget about my remaining bottle for at least a decade. Better after 2026 and probably best after 2031. — 6 months ago

Antichi Vitigni Autoctoni Rosso Toscana Pugnitello 2016

Interesting wine. Some sort of semi obscure Tuscan grape sometimes used for blending in Chianti. Very very juicy - maybe too much so. Pretty light, but with great fruit and a surprisingly long finish. Good acid, very little in the way of tannins.

Editing up to 9.0 with a bit more air. Fleshes out in a nice way.

Petra Lava Bianco Etna Carricante

Yellow straw color. The nose really citrusy, floral with hints of crushed gravel and subtle note of petrol. On the palate bright and crispy, notes of green apple, lemon zest, petroleum. The finish quite acidic and precise. Really nice companion for pizza and pasta. — 2 years ago
