Fattoria Galardi

Terra di Lavoro Roccamonfina Aglianico Piedirosso 2010

Opened and decanted 2.5 hours in advance of our inaugural Aglianco Osso Buco wine dinner here at the Gotham

Facing off against a range of Aglianco from Unti in Sonoma, Leonetti in WA and Galardi 2007 in Campania

The 2010 Galardi was the most dense and as with the 2007, the fruit was minimal. Instead the flavor profile is herbs, green olives and incredible savory notes. It worked incredibly well with the osso buco and needed the richness to shine. This wine still had a bit of hard edges and could use more bottle age IMO

Collina Dalla Valle Napa Valley Red Blend 2016

A really great wine. Drinking fantastic now. Very floral nose. Almost black. Ripe blue and brackish fruit, firm yet silky tannins. Great mouthfeel. Graphite. Nice long finish. Great with a steak meal! — 2 months ago

Antica Terra

Botanica Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2017

One of America’s best, in winemaker Maggie Harrison. Great to find this on a list with a bit of age. There’s such a beguiling combination of savory earth, mineral and rich cherry fruit flavors, with killer concentration, a plush texture and serious length. Top notch Domestic Pinot for sure. — a month ago

Dits del Terra Priorat Carignane 2021

High acidity and quite a lot of tannins, but well rounded. Black and blueberries with herbal notes. Excellent with food, quite good by itself. Needs to breathe a little. — a month ago

Laboro Disubbidiente Per Terra Madre Vino Rosso Barolo Nebbiolo 2012

Declassified Barolo riserva. Certainly hits all the classic notes. Floral and forest floor aromatics and bright acidity accent a powerful red berry core — 2 months ago

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1994

Double decant and pour(lots of chunky/fine sediment). A striking still dark ruby red color with bricking. On the nose: expressive notes of dried marchiano cherry, cassis, herbaceous, floral, minty eucalyptus, cinnamon, touch of funky earth. Taste: sultry, elegant, nice mouthfeel wine with dried cherry, tobacco, red clay, worn leather, lots of pepper, and a wet soil cocoa medium plus finish. YUM! Nice showing at 30 years! — a month ago

Fattoria Galardi

Terra di Lavoro Campania Red Blend 2007

Opened and decanted 2.5 hours in advance of our inaugural Aglianco Osso Buco wine dinner here at the Gotham

Facing off against a range of Aglianco from Unti in Sonoma Leonetti in WA and Galardi 2010 in Campania

The 2007 Galardi came across with olives, gaminess and herbs in the nose but once tasted showed a certain finesse and smoothness that was great. This was right up there as the savory wine of the night.
