Welcome! I have had a few requests for this lately, so I am happy to launch a brand-new wine blog today.
Thanks for visiting and I hope your wine journey begins - or indeed continues! here, so do check back often:
Today's first review is on Principessa Gavia Gavi DOCG 2015, DOCG from Banfi (Vintages #250696 - $19.95).
Hailing from the Piemonte (Piedmont) region in the North West of Italy - also home to the wines of Barolo - this white wine is crisp, clean, and completely refreshing. Made from the Cortese grape, it is the only white wine of any importance from this part of Italy. Amazing just on its own as an appetizer, don't miss trying it with fresh oysters or sushi. Grab a few bottles while it's on the shelf at Vintages as it usually sells out fast!
On the red side of the aisle, Atamisque Catalpa Old Vines Malbec 2013 from Tupungato in Argentina (Vintages # 194126 at $19.95) has hints of blueberry and refreshing acidity on the palate, and is well balanced in spite of its relatively high alcohol. Enjoy with ribs or pork tenderloin.
Stay tuned for more and Enjoy!
Later, Mo
