Fallegro Piemonte Vermentino 2021

Unique Piemonte Favorita clone of Vermentino. Bright straw color. Aromas of unripe pear, white flowers and burnt rubber. The palate notes pear, lemon, fresh herbs and a distinct mineral note on the long finish. Crisp and bright acidity. A bit of heft. Quite good. Thank you for the bottle, Ron B! — 10 days ago

Serre Barolo Nebbiolo 2010

Pop and pour. Vinous note suggested early drinking, CT tasting notes suggest waiting. Split the difference? I was expecting a fruit-forward modern-styled barolo, and while this definitely leans modern, it is not over-the-top. In fact, quite charming at this stage. On the nose: classic blood orange, soft florals, but modern sandalwood inflections, with some dried strawberry secondary notes. On the palate: excellent acidity, bitter herbs, dried raspberry, dried sage, and soft plum. Serious tannin kicks in, but the finish is juicy enough that most food pairings will soften the tannic blow. Tipping the scales at a burly 14.5% ABV, but this is surprisingly nimble. I really enjoyed this... — 4 years ago

Malanser Pinot Noir Grand Cru 2018

Had with home made Chicken Tortellini soup and it paired really well. This would also be great for a Thanksgiving Turkey meal with all the fixins. Great pick up while touring Switzerland. — 25 days ago

Roero Arneis 2019

I love this Arneis. At $18 a bottle, I should get a case. Aromatic, unctuous, nice 🍑 fruit. — 2 years ago

Paulin Dolcetto d'Alba 2013

Nose: grape - almost artificial, like a popsicle. Dirt, dried leaves. “Fumey.” White pepper. Plum skin (tannic smell). Alcohol smell.
Palette: tannic, dries out gums (right away). Round/full. Smokey. Juicy - grape, plum, berry. Jammy.
