T'ara Rà Campania Greco
As polarizing as they come. I, luckily, enjoyed the hell out of it! Insanely mineral, saline, citrus, and savory. While I find this combination a lot in wines grown farther North, it’s so interesting to taste these profiles in a wine that is obviously from hot, sunny locations.

Feb 27th, 2021Greco! Reminds me of Ageno. Orange rind, candied, marmalade, mint / sage, musky. Great food wine, punchy, enticing, mouth-watering, multidimensional. Amazing with mussels in saffron-garlic-tomato broth. Perfect match with mussel mealiness and wine astringency on palate (without any bitterness!).
