Big, big Petite Syrah! Loads of dark fruit and tannins. Really opened up after an hour in a decanter. Paired perfectly with brined, cold-smoked then petite Syrah braised beef short ribs ala Michael Chiarello Bottega style over polenta. This was a fun wine find while tasting Odette Cabernet. — 9 years ago

Chiarello wine - went to the "crusher," Outpost, and discovered it there before going to Bottega for our dinner! Well balanced. Develops a slight cherry flavor as the wine sits in the glass. — 9 years ago

Bolognia origin grappa - have to say, the best I have ever had to date, so elegant, not that harsh alcohol bomb that we have often had. Semplice, magnifico! Grazie ancore Michael Chiarello. — 2 years ago
