Az. Agr. Fiorano ‘Giulia Erminia’ Marche Bianco IGT 2015: Well-balanced. Bright acidity. Big taste. Pronounced lemon notes, light oak and a touch of vanilla. Elegant long finish. All in all, one of the best Pecorino wines I’ve had in a really long time. A great wine pairing/selection with the awesome food from Valenti & Co. in San Anselmo of Potato Gnocchi and Costoletta alla Milanese! Great day to all wine lovers! Cheers🍷 — 5 years ago

Here's the story as presented, without any fact checking so I'm sure others will identify some mistakes... The winemaker was known as "the hermit of Lazio" as he went about making wines in his own way, built to age, and building up a vast library as he had little interest in selling his bottles. He made arrangements to sell his wine to a broker when his health was failing. The other act he took in the last months ahead of his death was to rip up all his vines because his daughter and heir married into a well known winemaking family that he didn't like and he couldn't face the prospect of them making his wine. This wine is a unicorn.
Earthy and slightly rustic, it retains red fruit qualities though rose, tar and tobacco dominate. It is an interesting wine with a fascinating story.
Found on the Maialino wine list, which is filled with gems from the reference points to the obscure.

This is Italian not French, Delectable. This was served at a lunch in Casa Ferrari in the middle of the Fiorano racetrack. No notes - only had a glass. 100% Sangiovese from Emilia Romagna. Again, a little different from Tuscan Sangiovese - less savoury and more fruit driven - light oak influence. Delectable- not a gamay. Not available in your database. — 3 years ago

Botte 47. Phenomenally complex and constantly evolving. Initially savory with some animal fur, toasty honey (aged semillon) notes, slight star fruit. Then it evolved into dried flowers, mushroom, and dark fruit - reminded me of a young Barolo. Then black tea, green tea. Then strong dried spearmint, honeyed toasty complexity like the '81 Lopez de Heredia. Medium bodied with slightly elevated sparkling acidity. Not intense, but persistent on the palate. To borrow a phrase from Veronelli- It burrowed into my memory. I hope it made me forever better. — 10 years ago
Wow. Remarkably good. This is an Italian 'traitor' -- Merlot/Cab. I vote for variety neutrality. These Italians worked wonders with French grapes! — 11 years ago
