White
2018 Banfi Piemonte Gavi Principessa Gavia
89 points
7up up front, with a bright, pleasantly bitter finish. Uncomplicated but delicious. A pleasant surprise coming from Banfi.
White
2016 Monchiero Carbone Roero Arneis Recit
88 points
Nice balance between lush fruit and fresh acidity. Overall a good Arneis for the price.
Red
2017 Marziano Abbona Dogliani San Luigi
90 points
Fresh cherry fruit, some earthy and savory notes, bitter almond on the finish. A fun, clean and fresh wine. Perfect for pizza, pasta, and maybe even Thanksgiving.
Red
2015 La Spinetta (Rivetti) Barbera d'Asti Cà di Pian
This is going for a style of Barbera that is bigger and bolder than what I typically associate with the grape. As such I feel like it needs more time to really show its personality... not without charm now but another 5 on its site may pay dividends.
Red
2014 Damilano Barolo Lecinquevigne
90 points
Decanted about 4h. Surprisingly soft and elegant at this point... perhaps drinking more like a barbaresco, at least stereotypically. A little simple for the price, but certainly tasty. Definitely drinkable now, esp. w/ food.
