Arianna Occhipinti

SP68 Bianco Terre Siciliane Albanello Muscat of Alexandria 2022

Worried it might be a little natty for my taste at first but the funk blows off quickly to reveal a fragrant & expressive wine—orange peel, orange blossom, fennel pollen, pumpkin and a gorgeous salinity.

It’s a wine that really sings with seafood. Had it with Provençal Cod with olives and fennel.

Her winemaking talent really shines in the texture—particularly the finish. Definitely a lot of skin contact here, but the tannins are elegant and the finish is crisp, salty and refreshing —no graininess or bitterness.

Like Stanley Tucci says to Arianna, “I could bathe in this wine”

We visited the winery last month. Like you, I am not a fan of too much skin contact in white wine. This and Elisabetta Foradori’s whites have just enough to add some texture and complexity without the bitterness on the finish that many have! By the way, we loved our visit there.

Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Majestic. I really enjoy the 2021. Smooth, not too sweet, hints of vanilla and oak. Very enjoyable and easy to drink. — 16 days ago

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars

Karia Napa Valley Chardonnay 2021

Pale yellow gold. Smells of flowers and very slightly of candied fruit. Mineral on the tongue, followed by pineapple and spice. Butter and tangerine come forward as the chill comes off the wine. — 2 months ago

Poached pare, butter, lemon curd, vanilla bean. Very rich mouthfeel — 3 months ago

Aubert

Eastside Russian River Valley Chardonnay 2022

Lovely gold color. Massive stone fruits on the nose with some apples, butter, and brioche. Absolutely massive wine. What was on the nose is amplified. Deep and chewy with an insanely long finish. This wine rocks and requires a crowd to drink. — 3 months ago
