Pollino Terre Di Cosenza Magliocco 2016

@Chris MacLean not sure this is exactly the same label you had with @Sarah Bignami
I did sourced it from callmewine and i am happy enough though
What fascinated me was the corrispondence with the territorial elements so common in the surrounding
I found raspberries and wild apples, licorice, elderflower and fennel seeds and these are all parfumes you meet in the area
The tannin was lean and there is a nice mineral too.
Fairly long and enjoyable
It needed time to open up
Definitely worth the money
😊🍷🙏
Thanks
@Chris MacLean and @Sarah Bignami
And thanks to Armando Castagno too

Poggio Castagno

Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2013

A lighter Chianti but that's what I prefer. Still goes very well with typically Tuscan food though. — 9 years ago

Hervy - Quenardel

Brut Grand Cru Blanc de Noirs 2005

Giallo oro con bolla mediamente fine è persistente. Al naso profumi di brioche calde, appena sfornate e note ossidative eleganti, caramella d'orzo, miele di castagno. Bei sentori di sottobosco, un po' corto bel finale. — 11 years ago

Alma Birra Doppio Malto Alta Fermentazione Al Miele Di Castagno

Fantastic beer. If I could only drink one more for the rest of my life it would be this. Craft beers these days are so hoppy, but this one has a really nicely balanced creaminess to it. Beautiful stuff. — 6 years ago

Ziobaffa

Toscana Red Blend 2012

The Ziobaffa Toscana is made from grapes organically grown in the Poggio al Casone vineyard, 80% Sangiovese and 20% Syrah. Visually this wine is a black hole - no light gets through at all. Aromas of black berries, plums and currants are soaked in a savory setting of cigars and spice. The palate is fresh and lively, with enough tannins for anything Bolognaise, for sure. You might even grill a steak for it. Dark fruit flavors are laced with a leathery licorice layer that does not disappoint.

I paired it with an amazing cheese by Italian cheesemaker Beppino Occelli, Occelli al Barolo. After nine months of aging, the wheel is coated with a Barolo grape must, then soaked for two months with another wine called Langa Marc. The Sangiovese fits nicely with the Nebbiolo influence of the cheese. It also plays very well with Occelli’s Testun al Foglie di Castagno, which is wrapped in chestnut leaves.
