Capella Sant'Andrea

Capella Sant' Andrea Vernaccia di San Gimignano 2022

Light straw color. Delicate aromas and flavors of green melon, unripe peaches, white flowers and a light touch of minerality. Nice hint of blanched nuts on the long and crisp finish. Beautifully balanced and fresh. Outstanding value. — 2 months ago

Sicilia Il Frappato 2010

Large format, 15 years old…showing a little signs of age, but still spritely enough. A few years ago, this would’ve been in its prime — 23 days ago

PT Terre Siciliane Frappato 2016

“PT” comes exclusives from the Pettineo contrada located 217m above sea level with vines 70+ years of age. Arianna ferments in cement and then ages the wine in large oval cement tanks for nearly two years. Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple hours. The 2016 “PT” pours a slightly hazy garnet with a transparent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears and signs of some light sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with a beautiful perfume of ripe red fruits: strawberries, raspberries, Morello cherry, red flowers, leather, minerals and exotic spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannins and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ with a refined, silky texture. This was a fabulous paring with spaghetti all’assassina. Drink now and over the next few years. — 7 months ago
