  Was fortunate enough to attend a very well put together Amarone dinner in LA last night put on by a friend I met at a tasting last year. For those who don’t know, Amarone is a wine produced in Veneto, Italy, from mostly Corvina grapes along with 20-40% Rondinella and 5-25% Molinara. What makes these wines unique is that the grapes are basically ... Read More

  I've been lucky enough to spend some time in Soave and through the generosity of the producer, I've been able to taste many wines, several in multiple vintages.This experience has certainly shifted my opinion of Soave from a simple, easy to drink young wine to one that almost requires some age to show its best.

  La Corte Negroamaro Puglia IGT 2005

  Snoothrank:

  30 min air time. Smooth, well-integrated, hearty, and balanced (however the balance tends to favor rich-tasting plummy, berry, smoky fruit). More tasty than aromatic. Nose of smoke, earthy dried fruit, compost, and a bit of fruit. Initial pulse of acid around the edge of the tongue, followed by rich ripe fruit (dark plum, blackberry, hints ... Read More
