Torrazza Erbaluce di Caluso 2020

Rich with equal parts honey and lemon. I love the style of Northern Italy and this could be anything from Piedmont to Alto Adige. Golden glow, sweet perfumes, viscous foundation. Aromas of honey lemon almond marzipan, a bed of flowers, smoke and hint of mint. Very worth my while. — 4 years ago

Cancelli Montepulciano d'Abruzzo

9.1

Natural montepulciano. Comes in a clear bottle 🤷🏼‍♂️. Fully enjoyable, especially with rustic Italian fare. Quite farty on the nose. Tad spritzy. Slightly under ripe cherry on the palate with a minty kick. Tobacco and herbs. This has really nice verve and presence and I love the texture - lactic, almost creamy. Finishes with grainy tannins. Very alive. Tastes like a barrel sample. Drained quickly. — 6 years ago

Domaine de la Chevalerie Bourgueil Cabernet Franc 2014

E molto buono. Vogliamo prendere di nuovo. L’ho trovato all’enoteca di Chambers Vini. E rotondo generalmemte, abbiamo sentito il gusto crudo. E come i vini della spina in Puglia. — 7 years ago

Papale Primitivo di Manduria 2019

This is a version of Primitivo quite different to what we are used in Italy.
I am sure it has its lovers
6 months in French oak and 6 in American oak too
The wine has a deep colour
Multitude of spices over a big fruit.
It is a step away from a Barossa wine and two away from a classic Primitvo.
But it is definitely long and mouth fulling.

Casata Monfort

San Lorenzo Vino da Tavola Rosso 2021

Andrew Holod
9.1

Back label on this 2021 bottling identifies Saint Laurent as the varietal and claims "the wine is part of the project 'Primi Vini' for grapes that ripen early, enabling the wine to be put on the market earlier. I don't know if this means it is a Nouveau style/carbonic maceration or just refers to the precociousness of the variety.
Inky purple. Boisterously fruity nose with a crushable balance that invites another sip. YUM.

Cascina delle Rose

Rio Sordo Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2018

Celebrating my brother and my nephews over
Absolutely a winner
2018 i guess is vintage that gives away a lot early, but that's fine with me
I met the producer at the wine fair of Vini Veri in Cerea last week and he told me to try a bottle of the six i bought and i am very pleased i did
Very long and complex

12 e Mezzo Primitivo del Salento 2014

Delicious Puliga wine. Strong, bold flavor. Lots of over ripe, cooked cherry and dried spice flavor. Medium body for such a flavorful wine. I was expecting a thick heavy wine. An excellent value for me, got the 2014 on clearance at the local wine shop for 8.99. — 7 years ago

Domaine Comte Abbatucci

Cuvée Collection Il Cavaliere Diplomate d'Empire White Blend 2012

Blend of local Corsican grapes, which Vermentino was the only one I was familiar with. Tawny gold, ripe yellow fruits, saline freshness, intense concentration and a bit of roundness from lees aging, evocative of scrubby coastal landscapes. Like a good diplomat, an endearing, versatile and fascinating companion to any Mediterranean cuisine — 2 years ago

Papale Linea Oro Primitivo di Manduria 2017

This was an excellent wine. It’s probably only my second outing with Primitivo di Manduria. It pours a beautiful thick purple in the glass. It has a decent nose. But the flavors are quite wonderful and powerful. There’s raisins berries plums and maybe a hint of vanilla or tobacco. There’s some acidity. And a decent finish. I will absolutely be buying this again, as well as other Primitivo PDM wines. It went perfectly with the elk steaks we paired it with. — 4 years ago
