Elegant and vibrant, with expressive aromas suggesting cherry, tamarind and tar, followed by flavors of red berry, rose and mineral.  Ends with a lingering aftertaste.  Best from 2023 through 2038.

Savory juniper, mint and floral aromas give way to cherry and strawberry flavors in this high-pitched red.  Firms up, with refined, yet pointed tannins lining the lingering finish.  Best from 2024 through 2036.

Bosco di Gica opens with fresh floral scents that lead into flavors of Honeycrisp apple, yellow pear and white peach wrapped in a fine, satiny mousse and just enough sweetness (10 grams per liter) to amplify those juicy fruit tones. It’s an elegant wine and a terrific value, perfect for a high end by-the-glass program.

An explosion of flavors on the nose and palate; dark forest fruits, dry hay, strawberries with cream, smoke and spice. Great Complexity and Intensity.

The 2019 Vermentino di Gallura Superiore Sciala is very pretty and perfumed, with yellow flowers giving way to ripe apples and sweet spice. This is silky in feel yet full of nervous energy, as a mix of saline minerals and acids creates inner tension. A mix of ginger and lime lingers long, making for a clean and precise finale.

There’s incredible mineral presence here, from the nose right through to the finish. A aromatic mix of flint, tufo and wet-stone aromas, as well as heather and floral notes. Then, the palate finally introduces ripe peach and pineapple to this mineral carnival. Full-bodied, super-silky and almost syrupy texture with dense, ripe fruit and light phenolics. The long finish mixes stone-fruit and enough acidity to handle the same, huge bundle of rich, silky minerals. This is a special old-vine selection from the historic, volcanic Monte Foscarino vineyards. Quite unique in the Soave context, and showcasing one of the appellation’s top vineyard sites. Fermentation in a mix of barrel and oak cask. First vintage. Drink or hold.
