  Pio Cesare Il Bricco Barbaresco 1996

  Snoothrank: Starting at $99^.99

  Barbaresco great! yet mature despite being a 1996. understood and vinous aromas, very persistent, very elegant and balanced in the mouth with soft tannins and fine with great retro nasal sensation of spice and leather notes, very long taste.

  Ricossa Barbaresco 2005

  Snoothrank:

  ruby purple in colour, lots of flavours of dark fruit, with a sweetish finish. ... and violet flavors in most barbaresco. The tannins are sweet so the wine is approachable now but will age for atleast 5 year

Read moreYoshi - Tempranillo is a grape. Rioja the region. Many producers in Europe ... Beaujolais, Brunello, Barbaresco. Most of those regions also require that to be called by the specific name, the wine be made of certain specific grapes. Why? Because over the centuries, the people who controlled the politics of the area, usually a local nobleman, fixed it so that all the wine had to be made from whatever they grew and everything else was outlawed. Sometimes today you hear people try to justify the restrictions by claiming that the approved grapes were found to be best-suited to the area, but that's of course not true. It's sort of like telling apple producers in an area that they can only grow Golden Delicious apples, not Granny Smith. Maybe Granny Smith didn't even exist when they made the law, so how would they know the apple won't be good in the area? So you can simply say "Rioja", and people will assume that the blend will be mostly Tempranillo, because there is very little white wine produced there. Or you can say "Brunello" and they will assume that it's the local clone of Sangiovese. On the other hand, you would never think that your Rioja has any Sangiovese or that your Brunello has any Tempranillo because those wouldn't be allowed. In the case of Burgundy, you need to specify whether it's red or white. Outside of Europe we don't do that. We generally name the wine by the grapes that are used or by some fantasy name that the producer came up with. For example, he can call his wine "Opus One" or "Grange" and then you just have to find out for yourself what grapes are used. It really shouldn't matter all that much - what really matters is whether the wine is good. Good luck tasting your way thru thousands of wines    (hide)

Brunello di Montalcino is quite excellent but may be difficult to find. California Cabernet id generally going to be a better bet than Bordeaux.

  So what Italians? Barolos, Barbarescos, other nebbiolos? Chiantis, Super Tuscans, other sangioveses (and Bordeaux varietals)? Further south (negroamaro, etc.)?
