Day 2 of WineBoyz Wineapalooza. Tasted blind. Youthful, red color. Nose of bright red fruit, dark soil, roses. Guesses are all over the place... old Rhone, old Burgundy, old Italian, etc. The color being so bright and young fooled us all.

Pretty red fruit slightly high toned, a whiff of VA. Browned edges but nice balance and length

Our charming and fabulous friends Amanda and @Daniel Moritz took me and @Cara Zimmerman to Sushi Zo, where raw fish is made art. The sublime slices of sashimi were elevated by some terrific wines.

The 1970 Cappellano is largely tertiary in profile in its older years. Dried rose petals, orange peel and autumn leaves meld together in this subtle and elegant wine.

Fact: older Barolo goes with great sushi.

Lovely caramelized leather and wet leaves give way to orange peel and dried red fruits. Vanilla cream finish.

Still vibrant! What a gorgeous mature barolo. The fruit is still rich with an acid twang and layers of spice, dried orange and minerals.
