Three wines that amaze me during Christmas holidays:
➡️ Bottle n.1: Corvina brut, a white wine from the famous red grape from Valpolicella area called "Corvina". Fresh, elegant with a ye**ty aftertaste, with a good sapid taste.
How can a red grape make a white wine?? Well, book a wine tasting with me and I'll tell you everything 😉
➡️ Bottle n.2: yes, a winemaker named "Cecilia" is a win won 😁
Moderately aromatic, Ansonica is a white grape from Center and South of Italy. Its citrusy note goes with risotto and sushi.
➡️ Bottle n.3: Raboso is a grape closely related to North Italy. I found this bottle in the last shelf of my wine cellar at my parent's house (yes, I have a wine place at their house too....!!) and I thought it was gone... It's a 18 yo bottle!
Well, it took a while in the glass to open but this is perfect! The aggressive tannins are now soft and pleasant, very concentrated bouquet, aged cheese will be a fantastic pairing.
This is my career and I'll keep doing it for the next 2024, no doubt at all!!
