Roagna

Dolcetto d'Alba 2021

Nice but not as lush, farmy, and funky as previous vintages. Acids are prominent and lean toward Barbera. Tart raspberry and sour cherry, touch of cola, good minerals. More from the Astor Wines Piedmont sale. 05/06/23 — 3 years ago

Romagnoli Renato

Il Rosso Di Casa Romagnoli Red Blend 2021

$7 at Astor and a staff pick touted as a “solid pizza sipper” — liked it enough to get again and pay better attention — 3 years ago

Château d'Oupia

Les Hérétiques Pays d'Hérault Carignane Syrah 2017

For $9 from Astor wines, this is a phenomenal bang for your buck every day red. Kind of like the earthiness of the Alea Viva aleatico, slightly fruitier and deeper, but for the price, it’s fantastic value for a tasty red. — 7 years ago

Azienda Agricola Petrera Pasquale

Fatalone Spinomarino Puglia IGT Greco 2017

The funk had increased and so did the honey and the wild flowers and salt. All playing a tighter composition with the symphony pulling each act together. #astor — 8 years ago

Fratelli Barale

Langhe Nebbiolo 2021

Classic young Nebbiolo plus a little oak. Really nice acidity and medium– body with pretty mild tannins. Young and fresh but good. From Astor Wines. 05/04/23 — 3 years ago

Erdenlied

Zweigelt 2017

fruity! bitter red fruit, like a pomegranate or a cherry. smelled a little like Brussels sprouts at first-- is that sulfur? smells much better after opening a bit, sorta like a jolly rancher. still pretty bitter (smoky?), not chuggable because of that but having very little tannin makes it go down easy anyway. feels a bit peppery? black pepper sounds right but maybe it's bell peppery. not mind blowing but I'm into it. definitely want to try more zweigelts and get to know them (Astor)

Filippo Gallino

Licin Langhe DOC Nebbiolo 2018

Mellow and delicious. Great expression of tar & roses Nebbiolo, with rounded acids and lush tannins plus cocoa, blackberry, mushroom, graphite, dusty violets, leather. Definitely a “baby Barolo.” From Astor Wines. 04/30/23 — 3 years ago
