A great set of wines on the tasting table for you to enjoy this weekend, and all fine bargains too! Plus an Italian cheese that you’ll be coming back for again and again. Sounds like a great recipe for free weekend tastings! Join us Friday from 3-7pm and Saturday from noon-4pm to try:
Tenuta di Favignano Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Superiore Villa Torre 2023 - Certified organic Verdicchio that will make your mouth water and face break into a smile!
Terre Nere Etna Bianco 2022 – Etna whites are more rare than the reds, but every bit as delicious. This is a benchmark. As Vinous says in the 91 point review, “The level of complexity here is off the charts for an entry-level Etna Bianco. Yum!”
Ch de Garnerot Bourgogne Cote Chalonnaise Terres de Garnerot 2022 – Such a delicious glass of Pinot Noir that you may gulp it all down before you notice how much Burgundian complexity it delivers too!
Girolamo Russo Etna Rosso ‘A Rina 2022 – A fabulous introduction to the compelling joys of Etna Rosso from a master of the volcano.
Dom De La Bastide Cotes Du Rhone Les Figues 2023 – With 60% Syrah, this is a darker, sleeker, more complex take on Cotes du Rhone than you’d ever expect from the modest price. Don’t miss this one!
With the wines Jose has selected a nutty, complex, and hard to stop nibbling cheese accompaniment: Il Palagiaccio Gran Mugello Tuscany Riserva. It starts with cow’s milk cheese from a historic dairy and then ages 16 months or more with daily washings in Tuscan olive oil. While it’s firm, it’s also amazingly creamy – in Tuscany they say this is “a cheese to savor, a cheese that melts in your mouth.” And it’s a great match for the reds on the tasting table this weekend, too!
