Michael kindly hosted at his place. Rae made a pretty phenomenal accompaniment of salad and pasta with lamb ragu. Michael, Rae, Eric, Brandon, Clare and myself were in attendance.

Aromas of ripe apples, meyer lemon and a bit of honeysuckle. Palate is similar to aromas with added flowers and nice pink grapefruit on the finish. Medium bodied with nice acids.

Stony mineral aromas with tart apples, flower, and a bit of honeysuckle. Palate has tart apples, grapefruit pith, and flowers. Medium bodied, linear, with good minerals. Lacked some depth though.

2011 Andrea TIrelli Colli Tortonesi Munta 90 Points
Italy, Piedmont, Colli Tortonesi
Hand carried by Michael from Italy. Skin contact Cortese. Tons of flowers on the nose with minerals, and mild nuts. Palate is medium bodied with herbs, flowers, cider and a hint of nuts. Detectable tannins on the midpalate. Some definite heat on the finish, which mars this a bit for me. Definitely the most unique and interesting wine of the night.
