Antonio Lopez
Antonio Vallana e Figlio
Cuvée Bernardo Vallana Spanna Nebbiolo 2018
Old-school hint of barnyard funk in the nose. Not enough for any concern, and it plays nicely with tangy, zingy macerated cherry and spice. A bit of crushed stone. Rapier-like acids propel the fruit along. Tannins are very soft. (Thanks to my brother @Angelo Casagrande for the gift!) — 6 months ago
Cantina Ar.Pe.Pe.
Riserva Sant' Antonio Grumello Valtellina Superiore Nebbiolo 2009
Amazingly tight for a 16-year old wine. The acids are smell-able on the nose, zinging along tart, macerated wild cherry fruit and glacier-crushed rock fragments. (OK, maybe I’m making up the part about how the crushed rocks were created.) In the mouth it’s deep but the acids rip this along on the palate like a whitewater canoe ride. Really really unique and good. — 2 months ago

Bodegas Antonio Candela Winery
Parcelica Chica Yecla Monastrell Syrah
This was my birthday wine from Total Wine. One of the staff recommended it. It tastes like a small batch, old recipe. Smooth, dry, with just a tad of sweet berry finish. Will definitely purchase again! — 2 months ago

Tenuta Sant'Antonio
Selezione Antonio Castagnedi Amarone della Valpolicella Corvina Blend 2019
Think it’s a little young?? Idk, very good. Think it could enrich in time. Coal, oak, smoky, but a little too red fruity on after taste. However after a glass that acidity is very nice. Maybe it just needed to open up. — 6 months ago
