La Famiglia Di Vini

Vini Barbaglia

Boca Nebbiolo Vespolina 2016

Wow.

Nose: a mere hint of Brett. Blows off. Gorgeous pink roses. Intense.

Palate: perfect sweet cherry fruit. Still a bit grippy tannins. Luscious. Terrific.

Rocca delle Macìe

Famiglia Zingarelli Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2022

This wine is medium dark garnet in the glass. The nose has a good supply of cherry and raspberry notes, dusted up with earth, tar and anise. The palate has a bit of licorice on it, but mainly serves as a showcase for the red fruit. There are some spicy elements, too. White pepper, nutmeg, and a very light clove sense brighten up the fruit. Tannic structure is firm and acidity refreshing. I had mine with a slow cooker red wine short rib dish, and the pairing was sublime. — 3 months ago

Ferrando Vini

Etichetta Bianca (White Label) Carema Nebbiolo 2011

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple hours. The 2011 pours a pale, hazy garnet with a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is vinous with desiccated strawberry, oiled leather ball glove, braised beef stew, freshly pulled espresso, licorice, mint, fresh basil, eastern spices, and a mix of rocky and decomposing organic earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose, the finish is long and savory. A wine with soul. Drink now. — 2 months ago
