Cantine Elvio Tintero
Rosso Piedmont Nebbiolo Blend
Piedmont, Italy
Fresh yet the fruit is cooked. This is eating apple-strawberry-cherry-blackberry compote, cooked with allspice and some kale...after it has been cooled and is served to you while frolicking in the snow. As it is it was served to me after a Verdejo at Silver Lake Wine but in theory if I’d had more snowy activities I’d have taken more than one with me. A good wine for hot or cold or in-between. A NV blend which always makes me suspicious except that of three yum (tech term) treats Silver Lake poured us I dug this one. So super yum (again tech term).

Drinking this after finishing Kermit’s book. I love him even more now. And I have an even fonder appreciation for the wines he imports!

Used a bit of this for a sauce. Enjoyed the rest over a couple of days. Sweet red fruit & plenty of enjoyment. Shows great with a little chill. Not bad at all for ten bucks
