Scarpa (Antica Casa Vinicola Scarpa)

Tettineive Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2013

Absolutely excellent. Aromatics actually faded a bit with a 1.5 hour decant, so might watch that in the future. Lots of earthy cherry. Not overly refined, but in a good way - tastes like the older school piemonte that it is, with just the right bit of earth and leather. Excellent acid and a long pure finish. Great pairing with Kinderhook pork chops with a porchetta style seasoning. — a month ago

2007 vintage.
Given to me by one of my best friends.
He said go pick something from my fridge and take it home….OK

Developed cherry, leather, tobacco and herbal sage notes. Still holding astringency and acidity in balance,

Fun wines. I get the hype but perhaps a little flashy for my taste.

Sella Antica

Red Blend

Enjoyed at Brick and Brine. Is a blend, often featuring Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, with velvety tannins that make it versatile enough to be served slightly chilled with grilled meats, spicy international dishes, or enjoyed on its own. — 2 months ago
