Beautiful deep rose- floral and nice — 18 days ago
This is a wine of intense subtlety. Deep golden color and tight, but medium acidity. The notes are complex and many, but they are not obvious. Starts with strong saline and brine. Then moves to mineral and stone, with underlying green apple, slight zest, and some minimal tropical notes. It packs a punch and requires a long time on the palate to fully open up and appreciate.
Jill says it tastes like lake water, but I disagree. — a month ago

Really interesting and complex. Strawberry jam, black cherry, coffee and a nice brineyness. Nice acidity and balanced tannins. — 23 days ago
The Bruna winery is situated in the Ligurian hills, in the hamlet Ranzo di Borgo, land inwards from the coast from Alassio & Albenga, called the Riviera Ligure di Ponente. This 100% Pigato, is made from a selection of grapes from the old vineyard ‘Le Russeghine’. This Pigato is a minerally, very fresh white wine with lots of white fruit, apple, pear, some peach, fine herbs and a long finish. — 25 days ago
2018; Sparkling Nebbiolo (Spanna). The new vintage landed in our cellar quite some time ago, just getting around to tasting this evening.
What a fantastic color, nothing else like this in Italy.
See notes from my numerous posts on prior vintages, mostly consistent but strawberry notes are quite prominent on the palate for this vintage. Just lovely. 92-93 — 11 days ago
