Giulia Erminia Le Terre di Giobbe Pecorino 2015

Az. Agr. Fiorano ‘Giulia Erminia’ Marche Bianco IGT 2015: Well-balanced. Bright acidity. Big taste. Pronounced lemon notes, light oak and a touch of vanilla. Elegant long finish. All in all, one of the best Pecorino wines I’ve had in a really long time. A great wine pairing/selection with the awesome food from Valenti & Co. in San Anselmo of Potato Gnocchi and Costoletta alla Milanese! Great day to all wine lovers! Cheers🍷 — 3 years ago

Drei Donà (Tenuta la Palazza)

Notturno Forlì IGT Sangiovese 2019

This is Italian not French, Delectable. This was served at a lunch in Casa Ferrari in the middle of the Fiorano racetrack. No notes - only had a glass. 100% Sangiovese from Emilia Romagna. Again, a little different from Tuscan Sangiovese - less savoury and more fruit driven - light oak influence. Delectable- not a gamay. Not available in your database. — 7 months ago

Alberico Lazio Red Blend 2013

A blend of Cab Sauvignon and Merlot, deep Ruby with aromas of complex ripe fruit, spice and oak. On the palate flavors of ripe blueberry, currants and figs with tobacco and nutty notes. Fine tannins, long persistent finish ending with cooked fruit and smoky spice. Very Nice. — 4 years ago

Mistake! Last of two, first one opened in 2019 and meant to keep this one aging but forgot! It’s drinking beautifully, complex profile with fruits and stones singing together and am enticing texture that makes me sip more without the seafood. Too bad, no more to grow old! From JR Half Voignier and half Grecetto! Wow, got even better after days in Eto, More evolved, complex, lingering finish. Too bad it’s gone. Indeed quite a wine for aging. — 8 months ago

Vino da Tavola Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon 1990

Here's the story as presented, without any fact checking so I'm sure others will identify some mistakes... The winemaker was known as "the hermit of Lazio" as he went about making wines in his own way, built to age, and building up a vast library as he had little interest in selling his bottles. He made arrangements to sell his wine to a broker when his health was failing. The other act he took in the last months ahead of his death was to rip up all his vines because his daughter and heir married into a well known winemaking family that he didn't like and he couldn't face the prospect of them making his wine. This wine is a unicorn.

Earthy and slightly rustic, it retains red fruit qualities though rose, tar and tobacco dominate. It is an interesting wine with a fascinating story.

Found on the Maialino wine list, which is filled with gems from the reference points to the obscure.
