Poggio Al Sole is consistently one of the most prestigious, well-regarded wineries in Chianti and all of Tuscany. Their wines, which are now both certified organic and vegan offer incredibly sophisticated notes and are known for being wildly aromatic.
The brand new 2021 Primavera is a Rosato that has far more going on than meets the eye. Yes, it offers a beautiful pink hue, but this is more of a food wine than most any Rose out there. It offers intense aromas coming from the beautiful Sangiovese grown on the estate. It’s savory but has beautiful and clean fruit that bring weight and balance to it. Perfect with salmon, chicken or any appetizer you can throw at it. It’s delicious right now but will also be great up until 2024.

The 2021 Rosato Primavery is pretty yet understated in the glass, displaying young peach, hints of nectarine and sweet smoke. This is soft and round with a pleasant inner sweetness contrasted by saline-minerals that give way to ripe orchard fruits. It leaves a slight buzzing of residual tension while tapering off with a rosy flourish. This is a varietal Sangiovese Roasto.

2016 happens to be one of the highest rated ever (98pts, Wine Spectator) so it was no surprise that this year’s made the cut. The 2016 Riserva which was just released, is an intense version steeped in complex layers of flavor. It’s compact and well built with a touch of leather that compliments dark cherries, fresh licorice and a hint of cocoa all framed on a mineral backbone.
One of the best places to look for great Tuesday nighters are the sandy, limestone-laden hills of Asti. And within Asti, there is no white wine calling card that holds a candle to Moscato. Here it is king. Gianni Doglia naturally farms a tiny estate in the picturesque hamlet of Castagnole Lanze. His Moscato is the product of old vines, vinfied without oak to preserve its incredible fruit. This is serious, high-quality and hand-harvested Moscat, that oozes with sweet tropical fruits and a hint of minerality that stays on your tongue with each sip. This is also the perfect wine for anyone searching for a low alcohol option as well.

“The 2021 Barbera d’Alba Bricco dei Merli shows a beautifully fruity, almost juicy personality that paints an authentic portrait of this grape. The Congo winemaking team has worked out its approach to elegant wines. This Barbera does not show any of the excesses, like sourness or too much acidity, that can sometimes characterize Barbera when made in less capable hands.” -Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

Eric Guido of Vinous just reviewed a number of Bele Casel wines last week and lobbed heaps of praise for each and every one of them. For this one in particular, he wrote a great review that I agree with on multiple fronts. For one, he called out ripe orchard fruits and candied citrus which I think helps set this one apart. In the dry category, you rarely get so much pure, juicy fruit as you do in this one. He also noted the “chalky minerality’ before calling out ‘the amazing length and freshness’ of this wine which called an ‘excellent entry into the dry category’.
