Gorgona Toscana Ansonica Vermentino 2018

Bright and deep yellow gold. Inviting nose of tangelo and cedar. Medium palate confirms the nose adding a mentholesque note and yellow fruit. Low acidity (that brightens up mid palate) leads to a smooth mouthfeel that almost drinks like a red. Lingering orangey finish. Gorgona is a prison island where the inmates -- in the last year of their sentence -- work in the vineyards and winery to develop skills that will help them reintegrate into society. The wine is a direct result of that program, and if it's any indication those inmates are on the right track. Drink now through 2028. — 18 days ago

Ansonica Costa dell'Argentario 2021

Opened it for a pasta alla Genovese but finished it before it was done. Very pleasant. Nice acidity, somewhat fruity, lingering finish. Thanks to my brother for this one — a month ago

Mechanically this rides a little wonky but it also has a grace to the ride that you want to keep on peddling through the crackling of the autumn leaves — 9 months ago

Campi di Fonterenza

Bianco Vermentino Blend 2018

With my homeboys celebrating a bday, while rest of NYC is watching the Super Bowl. An amazing skin contact Italian, from Montalcino no less. Broad but still somehow terroir driven, definitely drink close to room temp. Yellow/ light orange hue, nice mouthfeel and enough prickly acidity to play off the Sicilian. sashimi w Meyer lemon & chili oil but also to keep up with everything else (delicious).

Ampeleia

Bianco di Ampeleia Trebbiano 2020

Fascinating natural orange wine from Tuscany. A blend of three local varietals (Trebbiano, Malvasia, and Ansonica) and three days of skin contact. Produces a dichotomy of fruit and nut-focused flavors. Orange peel, peach and apricot, hazelnut and almonds. Strong acidity and a long mouthwatering tart finish. — 7 months ago

Altura Isola del Giglio Ansonaco 2017

Nice orange wine. Skin contact lends nice color and texture but not at all overbearing. Nose is a bit funky but really nice on the palate - full bodied, great texture, medium minus acid but still all together. Nice. — 10 months ago
