Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This Superiore’s winning card is intensity and you’ll feel it in its aromas of cherry, blackberry and spice as well as in the ripeness of the fruit here. In fact, those mature berry flavors provide a nice contrast to the wine’s bright acidity.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Aged in stainless steel to maintain the integrity of its fresh fruit aromas, this bright wine presents layers of cherry, raspberry, spice cake and cola. It’s a fresh, easy wine that would pair with sausage or pepperoni pizza.

This lively Barbera d’Asti offers great integrity of fruit with pristine aromas of cherry, blueberry, tart raspberry and a touch of spice. The wine is smooth, crisp and closes with medium persistency.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Opens nicely, with peach pie and baked pear shot through with notes of Fernet Branca. Turns a bit earthy and slightly frothy in the mouth. The high level of sweetness and moderate acidity make this a good choice for pairing with dessert. Drink now.

Massimiliano Vivalda Moscato - NV

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A serious contender with sophisticated notes of leather, barnyard and cedar wrapped up in toasty vanilla oak. A hint of char adds an edge to a streamlined palate infused with earth, mushroom and strawberry tones. A slight lack of persistence takes it out of the top flight. Fully mature, drink now.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A modern, fruit-forward version with appealing blackberry and mulberry flavors that turn more sedate on the palate. While short, the finish shows enticing mixed berry fruit. A year in the cellar will soften the slightly drying tannins and integrate the pronounced acidity.

Massimiliano Vivalda Dolcetto - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Light-bodied and juicy, this is an eminently quaffable Barbera, with loads of bing cherry fruit and a refreshingly fruity but short finish. The open-knit structure makes this easy to partner with flavorful fish. Drink now.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
With a cheerful label that resembles a newspaper headline, Wine Philosophy is a thin and brambly Dolcetto with aromas of wild flower, forest floor and white cherry. There’s a tiny touch of light effervescence that leaves a spicy prickle on the tongue. Pair this wine with sliced mortadella.
