Chianti Classico Vendemmia

Nicola Biscardo did it! I haven't been a fan of Chianti for awhile but this one was so delightful. Cherry, red plum, baking spices, lush. So good! — a year ago

Barolo Nebbiolo 2016

Lyle Fass
9.4

Maurizio Sòt is a superstar. This is a rockstar wine. Nose is so unique and aromatic. Red cherries, herbs, sweet roses, sweeter darker cherries, amazing perfume. The brilliance of 2016 Barolo at the village level is not talked about enough. Glorious spice after 15-18 minutes now. Just glorious. Oh the palate. Sweet and decadent and precise with super sappiness on the finish. Gorgeous red fruits, strawberry, even a hint of red delicious apple, and so many cherries. Amazing precision and depth. Big tannins ensure a long life. Classically structured. Excellent length and persistence. — 3 years ago

Oropasso Originale Chardonnay Garganega 1878

Toegankelijke niet al te complexe wijn, best lekker, in de afdronk komen de zuren wat meer naar voren, maar niet te veel, blijft een prettig mondgevoel. En dat na een week open in de koelkast… — 7 months ago

Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2016

A night back at Roscioli's
And i have been spoiled by my old friend and colleague Maurizio.
He opened for me this marvellous Barbaresco explaining how Versio's family use to confer the grapes to Bruno Giacosa, but at once realised they could do something extremely good on their own. Production is very limited apparently. The wine from the vi tage 2016 is in fantastic shape
Velvety tannin, fruit, roses, a bit of tar and altogether just absolutely in balance. Long aftertaste too.
I didn't take a picture of another couple of wines Maurizio poured me such as the Moulin-a-vent by Thibault Liger-Belair, which was a stunning discover for me(gamay looking very Burgundian, i dare anyone would call that wine from the Cote d'Or rather than Beaujolais), and then he comes with this unlabelled bottle and another wonderful story....
Apparently Anselme Selosse goes to this unknown wine guy named Prof Venturelli and wants to swap his entire production of rose for the entire production of Lambrusco di Sorbara bottled by him. Answer was a big no and last night i tasted a trebbiano spargolo made by this Prof Venturelli in full Champagne style.
Pretty hot stuff, pretty hot night.
Always an experience a night at Roscioli's
...by the way, i was also gifted one of those Lambrusco di Sorbara, but i need to wait a bit before drinking it..so i was told😊

Neropasso Originale Rosso Veneto Corvina Blend 2020

Deep ruby in color; ripe plums, black cherries, and dried herbs on the nose (and a little black pepper); high acidity; medium plus tannins; tastes like stewed prunes, blackberry jam, and wet gravel with a long finish. Nellie doesn't like it. — 8 months ago

Labeled 198, which may indicate vintage? Funky, as you may guess from the label. This was a crowd favorite. Barkada wine club. — 3 years ago
