Vigna Elena Barolo Nebbiolo 2010

A bargain at $190 from Winestar. Fear I may have become overcorrected with no decanting at all for vintage Barolos, following education in Piedmont, but it seemed to go full panoramic after the fourth glass. Must try again with controlled variables!

Had to try another red from Alto Adige. Stuff is really good. More dark chocolate than Friday’s wine. Very dark in color. Becoming a fan. — a month ago

Beyond the Clouds Alto Adige Bianco Chardonnay Blend 2021

Interesting blend of mostly Chardonnay adding Gewürztraminer and Sauvignon Blanc, medium vibrant lemon yellow color, with aromas of complex fruits, nutty and floral notes. On the palate flavors of pineapple, apricot and citrus with cinnamon, honey and floral spice. Long finish ending creamy with juicy fruit, almonds, citrus and mineral notes. Will age a bit, but nice now! — 25 days ago

Selección de Bodega Malbec 2011

This wine is inky dark, with no light getting through the glass. Black fruit provides the sweet part of the nose, while tar, earth, tobacco, and coffee cover the savory side. Blackberry and plum flavors are joined on the palate by earthy minerals and a brisk acidity. The tannins are firm and seem to eagerly await a pairing with some beef. It’s a delicious wine, so if you’re not pairing it with food, that’s okay. — a month ago
