* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Black pepper and nutmeg shadings frame a solid core of wild berry, white cherry, violet and raspberry. This well priced wine is light and tonic in the mouth and delivers delicate layers of berries and pressed flowers backed by soft tannins and well-integrated acidity.

This is an elegantly streamlined Cabernet Sauvignon from Northeast Italy that is not exaggerated in any way (including price). You’ll get pleasant doses of blackberry, moist earth, green spice and characteristic green pepper aromas over a lean and tight mouthfeel. The wine is bright and crisp on the finish.

This is a bright and luminous Pinot Grigio with loads of lemon zest, stone fruit and grapefruit aromas. Friuli white wines are characterized by nice smoothness on the palate and this wine definitely shows that quality.

This is a full and generously aromatic Chardonnay with ripe tones of passion fruit, melon, peach and lemon zest. There’s a nice mineral tone at the back and the wine is firm and crisp in the mouth—great price point too.

This is a bold, oak-aged blend of Refosco, Merlot and Cabernet Franc with intense aromas of exotic spice, toasted wood, leather and tobacco. The wine has a rich, dark color and its thick concentration is evident on the palate, where you will taste smoke, black fruit, clove and crushed black pepper.

Angelo Pittaro has crafted an easy-going Friulano with bright aromas of passion fruit backed by pear and Golden Delicious apple. The wine is lean and compact in the mouth with medium structure and intensity.

This is textbook Pinot Grigio with aromas of citrus, melon and stone fruit backed by cooling acidity and an easy, watery mouthfeel. It’s an informal, no-fuss wine that could easily be served on a hot summer afternoon.

Here’s a pretty expression of Refosco with easy but clean aromas of wild berries, blueberry and light spice. The wine is bright, lean and compact and would pair well with informal meals of pasta and pizza.

This luminous non-DOC Prosecco opens with bright floral notes of white flower and rose backed by sweet pear and white peach. The wine offers creamy foam and a thick, sweet impression in the mouth backed by just the right measure of cooling acidity.
