Apr 21st, 2015From an underappreciated region in Italy, this sagrantino is a full-bodied wine with terrific aromatics. Much richer than I was expecting (I'm guessing 2007 was a warm vintage), this is a great wine for people unfamiliar with rich Italian reds. Sharing it with my sister who happened to be in Orange County on buisiness the same time I'm out here for a National Academies panel. Great evening!

Mar 11th, 2015Dark and grippy style wine with a masculine character. Perfect for game birds, stewed rabbit, or venison.
