From scratch bruschetta using our garden ripened tomatoes, screaming for Chianti. This 13 year old Chianti Classico Reserva from the heart of Chianti answered the call. Intense, tangy pie-cherry fruit and a grippy finish with rustic tannins. Our wine moment of the day 👍. — 5 days ago

Super small production Vermentino from the Isle of Capraia. Mouthwatering acidity, intense minerality and looooong finish. — 12 years ago

Enjoyed at our favorite Plaza Midwood hangout, Mezzo, as we watched Belgium lose to Spain in the World Cup quarterfinals. Pizza with sausage, grapes and arugula was paired. — 3 months ago

Luminous red. Aromas of wild strawberry, red cherry, cinnamon, vineyard peach, and pink flowers. A sweet explosion of floral red fruits and sweet spices follows through in the rich, suave mouth, firmed by a suggestion of orchard fruit pit. Penetrating and perfumed on the very sweet (240g/L r.s.) and very long finish. Remarkably well balanced (the extremely high but harmonious 9.8g/L total acidity allows this super-sweet to convey a very light on its feet quality), this wine from the beautiful but little-known island of Capraia off the Tuscan coast is an absolute knockout. Made from organically farmed grapes air-dried for 14 days. Will work equally well with a plum crumble or a chocolate cake. (Ian D'Agata, Vinous, October 2017) — 8 years ago

Great wine. Gran selezione is always a bit underwhelming to me but this one holds its own. — 7 years ago
