    2017 Ferraris “Sant’Eufemia” Ruchè of Castagnole Monferrato DOCG

    A light red wine that's easy to drink -- and a little different from anything you might have tried before. Though the winemaker calls this a casual wine, I found it to be elegant as well. There’s a beautiful, well-defined cherry and garrigue aroma. On the palate it’s fresh, with

    This is my style of chardonnay, more Burgundian than New World. There’s oak and richness but crispness on the palate, especially in the beginning and end. Peach, tangerine and minerality all contribute to the complexity, with acidity and good structure in the body and finish. Good balance. Sip on its

    As the wine warms in the glass, fruit and some vanilla vie for attention in the aroma. The whispered fruit turns opulently tropical and overflows onto the palate, inviting some strawberry along too. A baking spice & vanillin finish, but not overly so. Easy to sip on its own or

    A medium gold sparkling wine with good balance. Metodo classico, vinified in steel and aged in the bottle 30 months. Minerality, acidity, citric and apricot skin fruit with a hint of florals all combine to make this wine really work very well as a whole: a very pleasant experience for the

    After 60 months on the lees, the wine remains a light gold in color and quite delicate in flavor, with a wafting of yeast in the aroma. Hints of citrus, apricot, and mango appear on the palate. The body is light, as is the finish. Mild acidity. A good wine

    Consistent quality bubbly from Trentodoc. A medium straw gold color, with substantial mousse. Plenty of rich umami in the aroma: agar, toast and yeast. Very ripe fruit on the palate, citrus tending toward exotic bitter orange. Fairly hefty body, and medium finish. Made by metodo classico, with 24 months on the

    A white for every day, for any budget. Pleasingly simple with a touch of fruitiness, the wine is lower in alcohol, too: just 9.5%. The palest of green-gold tint in color, it has typical tinges of spritziness and fruit, yet with a smooth mouthfeel that is more substantial than one

    A 2004 vintage wine at the top of its game. Now, in 2018. Just opened, the wine in the glass exudes the welcome heat of a Tuscan afternoon. It is berry-cherry-fruity and spicy, with just enough tannin and baking spices on the palate. Lovely structure and lively acidity contribute to
