Giovanni Manzone

Rosserto Langhe Rossese Bianco 2022

I’ve never had Rossese Bianco and as a fan of Rossese (red), it’s exciting to try this (from Piemonte, surprisingly). Nose is quite herbal with a little note of raw almond. Slight note of stone fruit pits. Crisp and cleansing and refreshing in the mouth (as are many of its red siblings). Nice intensity and balance. This would be a very nice summer antipasto accompaniment. Thanks to my brother Angelo for spying and snagging this for me! — 8 months ago

Daou Vineyards

Pessimist Paso Robles Red Blend

Inky ruby red in the glass. The nose on this one is super powerful with a smorgasbord of jammy and ripe black, red and purple fruits. The tannins have an ever-so slight grip to them, but all you need is a nice marbled ribeye or even an antipasto platter to even out the lip-smackingness of it. 😊 — 5 years ago

Cà de’ Rocchi (Tinazzi)

Vinum Italicum N 3 Opera Corvina Blend 2016

Fabulous. Smooth from start to finish. Dark fruit color. Full bodied with dark fruit forward and a smooth balanced finish. Had it with antipasto, blue cheese and dried figs. Amazing. I bet it would mature nicely if I could resist it for that long. — 7 years ago

Pieropan

Soave Classico Garganega 2017

The perfect wine to have with antipasto consisting of fresh Roma Tomatoes , mozzarella and sardines. Wine was citrus zesty with M+ body. Very moreish. At an outdoor square in Copenhagen commemorating Victor Borge the multi talented Danish American comedian who was born in Copenhagen and died in Connecticut. — 8 years ago

Refreshing and deceptively complex notes of pear and lemon with a dry finish and a hint of saltiness. Great with tapas and antipasto. — 4 years ago

Terre Alte Rosazzo Bianco Colli Orientali del Friuli 2019

Very interesting wine, have not really had much like it before. A distinct almost sour note on the palate but still balanced with excellent freshness and verve. Nice pairing with some antipasto and sole on our last night in rome. — 4 years ago

Tenuta Caparzo

Toscana Sangiovese 2019

The description is apt. I can’t believe a 2019vintage is so refined and balanced. Ripe raspberries and hint of vanilla. A very versatile wine with or without food. We had antipasto and short ribs with pappardelle and it was awesome. The bottom of the bottle was way too close to the cork. Can’t wait to try older vintages — 6 years ago

Tenute Loacker

Corte Pavone Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2006

Dark ruby in color with a wide brick rim.

Beautiful nose of sweet plums, cooked blueberries, oak, vanilla, licorice, leather, spices, smoke, tobacco leaf, graphite, vinaigrette, herbs, beef jerky and peppercorn.

Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, cooked cherries, oak, vanilla, licorice, spices, chocolates, smoke, peppermint, light coffee, light vegetables, cinnamon, vinaigrette and black pepper.

Long finish with round, fine tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a great Brunello. Well balanced and enjoyable by itself or with food. Showing great complexity and a great mouthfeel with a very spicy mid palate.

I really loved the nose on this Brunello, I kept smelling on it for a long time.

Needed an hour to open up, and was better every 20 minutes after that. After 3 hours, huge tannins come in with dark coffee and bitter notes.


This 12 year old big boy has at least 5 years in it, and this is a great vintage too.

I paired it with Italian antipasto.

15% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

$45.
