Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour alongside the 2009 vintage. The 2005 “Giulio Ferrari” pours a straw color with a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is vinous with lovely notes of graham cracker, bruised apple, and spiced peach. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and richer than the 2009. Drink now. — 9 months ago

Blend of 20% Riservas from Sasella, Grumello, Inferno and Valgela with 20% Sfursat.
Amazingly complex nose full of cherries, lilies, spices, leather, herbs, a whiff of mint. Very youthful and without any evolved aromas. Midweight on the palate with impeccable balance, juicy acidity, a still firm, dusty tannic grip and a finish that goes on and on. Wow! What a wine. — 8 years ago

2013 Vintage. clear, golden color. red apple, underripe pear at first then becoming like apple pie on the nose. fine mousse, persistent and steady. Red apple, bosc pear, hints of lemon curd flavors. Not particularly yeasty but has a richness of flavor. medium long finish. balanced. well made. Too good for my sunday afternoon casual enjoyment. or is it?! — 8 years ago

The inviting breadiness and nuttiness on the nose reeled me in. There’s also aromas of yellow pears, green apples, and white flowers. On the palate it’s full bodied with an acidity that’s very well behaved and balanced. For flavors it’s a bowlful of mellow fruit like yellow pears, honeydew melon, and cantaloupe, getting an uplifting brightness from tart green apples. This is some awesome Prosecco. — 9 years ago

One of our favorite wine discoveries from a recent trip to Piemonte, Italy was the Alta Langa DOCG.

Alta Langa is a quality spumante (fully sparkling) wine made in the “traditional method” (metodo classico), modeled on the champagne method. It was the first region in Italy to make traditional method wine, starting in the mid-1800s, and became recognized as a DOC in 2002 and a DOCG in 2011.

Alta Langa wines are subject to rigorous legal parameters; for example, they must always:
--be vintage
--be brut or non-dosage (so dry!)
--undergo a minimum of 30 months aging and longer for “Riserva” wines
--be made in a white or rosé stye
--use only Chardonnay and/or Pinot Noir (Pinot Nero) grapes from a delimited production zone

Here is a bottle we brought home from our visit to Coppo: it’s the 2009 Piero Coppo, Riserva del Fondatore, made with 60 % Pinot Nero & 40% Chardonnay.

It matured 9 months on the fine lees in French oak barrels before the second fermentation; and spent another 99 months sur lie in the bottle before disgorgement, lending layers of autolytic and savory characteristics & a creamy texture with a fine, well-integrated mousse.

It’s an excellent wine capable of aging for decades. — 2 years ago

We bought 2 bottles from Total Wine, based on a recommendation from one of the sales guys in the store. We served it to Max, Ellen & Matthew, at Max's & Ben's birthday party at home and they all looked it a lot.

Kalamata olives, dried black cherries, baker’s chocolate, rusted jalopy, black pretzel, tar, and dried violets. Energetic aromatically; evocative of a rustic stone house with a variegated garden of herbs, and perhaps straw roofing. Plum moves forward in a good way rounding out the basket. Powdered cherry and blood orange with the finest tannins seem to liquify into a delicious balancing act between fruit and earth and herbs. Ripe plum, dried red cherries, black cherry juice, black olives, blood orange over grilled meat, sassafras, sage, tarragon, black truffle, chicory and walnut. Not a traditional pairing with Californian lamb from sustainable vineyards in Lake County, but revalatory. #Barolo #nebbiololife #nebbiololover #nebbioli #cabutto #tenutalavolta #docg #piemonte #piedmont — 8 years ago
