Eugenio Collavini

Venezia Giulia Sauvignon

This is a hard-to-top SB from an unlikely area. As far as I'm concerned, I don't look for extraordinary SBs in Italy. Or should I? Just don't expect your gum pleasing Loire experience, because. This one is peppery, grassy, thankfully untropical in fruit, and, it just strikes me, it oddly nods to black currant.

Ferruccio Deiana

Sanremy Vermentino di Sardegna

Oh wow. This isn't your regular Vermentino, and it is not a food companion. It is a fruity, well balanced, rich, charming stand-alone white wine. Glad I had it after the Ischian chicken, not with it. Hints of ice wine, and yes, you can have it with cheese and/or for dessert. Discovery at #LimaLima, Berlin (to be sure: LL is a Mediterranean shell, nothing to do with Peru) — 7 years ago
