2011 Damilano Langhe ArneisLanghe DOC more |
2/16/2013 - austinbeeman- austinbeeman.com Likes this wine: 91 pointsA stunning Arneis that offers Chablis-like minerality and usefulness at about half the price. The color is light straw. There is a touch of grass on the nose along with citrus and stone. The palate is medium-light with peach pit, pear, and stony minerally. This is where the Chablis comparisons really apply. The finish goes a touch tropical. I want to drink more of this. |

1999 La Spinetta (Rivetti) Barbera d'Alba Gallinamore |
7/9/2013 - austinbeeman- austinbeeman.com Likes this wine: 92 pointsReally surprised at how well this wine held up. Fruit is rich and dark - much richer than expected for a Barbera. The oak and tannins have integrated nicely with the acid. Want to drink more. |

2008 Wallner Blaufränkisch ReserveSüdburgenland more |
6/23/2013 - austinbeeman- austinbeeman.com Likes this wine: 90 pointsA seriously adult wine for 'old-fogeys' who don't want any of that modern-style stuff. This is firm and dark and dry and austere. Reminds one of a great Bordeaux in an 'off-vintage.' A very nice bottle of wine and - at the price - is a great alternative to Bordeaux. |

4/28/2013 - austinbeeman- austinbeeman.com Likes this wine: 87 pointsA little too vegetal for my tastes and that dropped the wine slightly out of balance. The are some cool 'forest-floor' flavors and black cherry licorice. If you like some greenery in your wines, you might esteem this a bit higher. |
