The Pietracupa 2021 Fiano is a linear and crisp white wine that opens to a flinty mineral tone that dovetails into unripe peach, white flower and pulpy grapefruit. The whole presentation is smooth and very true to this fantastic white grape from southern ...
2021 Pietradolce - Etna Rosso DOC
Seductive from the first tilt of the class, the 2021 Etna Rosso slowly opens to reveal dried strawberries, lavender, incense and spice. This is luxuriously round and soothing, with ripe red and blue fruits that easily flow across the palate. The 2021 f...
2022 Pliger,P. - Alto Adige Valle Isarco DOC Riesling Kuen Hof Kaiton
An attractive mix of ripe lemons, fresh peaches and honeysuckle with dried flowers and stony minerality. Impressive tension with medium to full body and nervy, linear acidity that cuts though the palate. Super steady and fresh. Long and crisp finish. Dri...
2023 Quintarelli - Veneto Bianco IGT Secco Ca' del Merlo (750ml)
The Quintarelli Giuseppe 2023 Bianco Secco is a traditional blend of Garganega, Trebbiano Toscano, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Saorin. That fifth grape is the local name for Tocai or Friuliano, and as far as I know, only the Quintarelli family still r...
2023 Quintodecimo - Greco di Tufo DOCG Jaune d'Arles (750ml)

2021 Quintodecimo - Irpinia DOC Aglianico Terra d'Eclano (750ml)

2022 Radikon - Venezia Giulia Bianco Slatnik (750ml)
The 2022 Bianco Slatnik is wild with an exotic bouquet of incense and dried owers, tangerine and hints of fresh mint. This opens with a pretty inner sweetness that gives way to tropical melon and citrus tones, all guided by juicy acidity. It nishes wit...
2019 Radikon - Venezia Giulia Bianco IGT Oslavje Orange (500ml)
The 2019 Bianco O…… (Oslavje) is airy and oral with a lovely touch of fresh mint that gives way to young peach and white owers. This is distinctly savory on the palate, with a tart lemon rind tinge, giving way to young kiwi and mineral tones, more like...

2019 Radikon - Venezia Giulia Bianco IGT Jakot Bianco (Friulano) (500ml)
Decidedly spicey, the 2019 Bianco Jakot reminds me of my childhood days drinking lemon-tinged sun tea, along with a twist of ginger and wild herbs. This is soft textured and round with a purity seldom seen. Brisk acidity excites green apple and young p...
