Matthiasson Vineyard Refosco

White pepper, cardamom, spicy red licorice, medium body, just enough structure, so relieved that 2011 turned out, looking like favorite vintage so far--lets hear it for "off vintages"

Drinking in the vineyard

I can taste the Napa soil in this great Italian grape wine

Refosco/can franc line change! Thanks Steve!!

1st red Italian varietal wine I've had from California that's as good as the "real" Italian stuff. And this is better than good—it's delicious.

Racy oxidative, honey, orange and tangerine marmalade? Crushed river rock, lovely nutty hazelnut and marzipan framed with great balance

Love for off vintages, and this CA Refosco!

REFOSCO!!
