Ah, this is better.

A robust, yet light
wine to soothe the
soul after that
Garnacha dragon.

Dark plums approaching
pruney, but not quite
there.

So…, DELICIOUS.

This has me
EPHEMERALLY
interested in
Sicily.

If this wine is
a respectable
ambassador for the
island, then why
aren’t we more wired
into the place?

I DON’T KNOW.

The lunch special is
sauteed smoked sausage
and polenta so this wine
selection was a no-brainer.

I moved the bottle to
the fridge right after
I got home from
road-tripping
the armadillo.

There’s nothing like
an act of “pest control”
to prepare you for
the trading day and
a memorable lunch.

The wine is WONDERFUL.

Just a pure and
beautiful wine with
no hair or warts.

Perfectly groomed.

Low ALC and inconspicuous
oak.

All the flavors come
together to create a
harmonious symphony.

Since the website
is focused on the
2015 vintage, it
might actually be a
treat to be drinking
the 2013.

And no armored plates…

Day Two…

One of the NEAT
things about drinking
a wine over two
days is that you
have better (or better)
expectations on the
second day.

This wine IS a
respectable ambassador
from Sicily.

Hey Garnacha, I have brain
damage…

Where’s Estella when
you need her?

Hiding in the Garnacha pips.

Hang in there.
