Elatis Rosato Nebbiolo Blend 2019

Nebbiolo Rosato

Elatis blends nebbiolo, pelaverga, & barbera

DAY1
Served with Vinloq System
👁Crystal clear: pink and light orange
👃Citrus. Bright & fresh
👅Elegant. Grapefruit, strawberry, chalky minerality with light smoke. Concentrated by rosé standards. Crisp finish with mod+ length

Stored Vinloq Preserved wine in fridge

DAY5
Rosés are very transparent and fragile so oxidation quickly diminishes the fun. No oxidation here. Just as outstanding as DAY1 with no loss of fruit or oxidative notes

Elatis is beautifully executed and an outstanding value👍

Bodegas Valdemar

Conde de Valdemar Crianza Rioja Mazuelo Tempranillo 2008

This is so bomb... And even more bomb because I picked it up for $6.75. Just a crianza but Conde Valdemar goes above and beyond with everything so I'd imagine this sees a year of oak and further bottle aging before release. It's an ’08 but I'd say it's still got another 5-10 years on it.
Delicious ripe strawberry, raisin, prune, dried red flower, dried blueberry, decomposing leaves, organic matter, irony minerality. Lots of dried fruit but the wine is so fresh and vibrant at the same time. Great acid backbone, mod tannin. Loving this.

Ripe dark cherry fruit, moving towards slightly dried, smoky/spicy 4EG character, woodsmoke, smoked meat, sanguine, peppercorn, roasted herbs, salt and granite. Mod body, firm and chiseled despite the vintage warmth, lovely and traditional Côte Rôtie. — 5 years ago

Washington State Cuvée Red Blend 2017

Fresh orchard smells.

Blackberry, black raspberry purée, hints of thyme and oregano. Extremely clean and very well made medium bodied wine with slight tannins - think pomegranate seed tannin - and delicious Alexander the grape acidity.
Lovely wine for a mod week tipple.

i Clivi di Ferdinando Zanusso

Clivi Galea Colli Orientali del Friuli Bianco Friulano 2000

Great wine! Amazing to taste a 19 year old dry white drinking at its prime. Probably related to being on the lees for years before bottling. Rich, medium body, moderate acidity, mild-mod complexity. Paired nicely with calamari and spaghetti with clams. Wish I had several more bottles. — 6 years ago

Guímaro

Ribeira Sacra Mencía

90.5 Great refreshing acid, low to mod tannin, silky texture. Ripe cranberry, raspberry jam, strawberry, a bit of savory spice, touch of pepper. Kinda smells and tastes like Northern Rhone syrah's younger less developed but more peppy and high energy brother. — 7 years ago

Calabretta

Sicilia Nerello Mascalese 2005

Does VERY well a decant, takes the brett( which actually like) out & smoothes the edges a bit. Dark dark black fruits, that volcanic minerality all through. Mild to mod tannins. Can match any food, just about- this time chicken w saffron, apricots; roasted brussel sprouts, & corn pudding w roasted garlic & sage — 8 years ago
