2013 Cà La Bionda Corvina Veronese IGT

Crazy wine
Light in color. Effusive nose of red fruit but very volatile. At first I was worried it was flawed but nothing on the palate gives me that indication. Pungent red fruit, medium body, high acid Lots of VA but somehow it just adds charm. Long finish. Still mostly on fruit and would love to revisit in five plus years
I often avoid wines this ripe but somehow I feel lucky to have this one

2009 Castello di Neive Barbaresco Albesani Santo Stefano

Surprisingly good
Popped and poured
Big nose of red fruit, menthol and eucalyptus
Palate is just slightly on the dry side of fresh but overall is excellent for the vintage Drinks more medium than big and full. Good acid. Palate is quite long. Tannins aren’t resolved, per we, but this is definitely in its drinking window. No evidence of oak. Medium long finish. Really nice for short money. Very much enjoyed

This is almost really good wine but the acidity is breaking up.
Natty. Fruit forward. Cab franc aromas are understated.
Acid is a really obviously high toned on the nose. Like. It smells good but also a little flawed.
Palate reinforces nose but the wine is quite enjoyable. Long, red fruited finish and bright acidity w a lingering VA issue
