  (REAL Moschioni) Real Dear Friends, This is one of the most exotic wines being produced in Europe and Moschioni's mentor and idol (Romano Dal Forno) could easily call it his own. If the standard (and Poor's) has you down, this will awaken your senses to something entirely unique and equally captivating. Moschioni's 2000 Real was produced with the new millennium in mind and it was built to age for a long time. He only bottled it in magnum to help extend the life of what should be a superlative and iconoclastic experience in 1-2 decades. With one of the more famous Parker reviews of all time to its credit (complete with carnal references, animals and cheese?), the Real has been almost impossible for me to obtain but the relentless nudging of a group of our consumer base finally spurred me to secure this parcel (they left messages on my voicemail every week for almost a year with strange Rocky Horror Picture Show references demanding this wine - still not sure what the significance of the RHPS stuff was all about but I did find the wine?) If you demand the very best of the best and the most distinctive, this wine will fit nicely among your treasures: ONE SHIPMENT ONLY directly from the winery cellar with perfect provenance. Only a few dozen magnums exported to the US: 2000 Moschioni "Real" (Friuli) 1.5lt It will ship during the first available shipping window this fall (weather permitting).
