InvecchiatIGP: Fornacelle - Vernaccia di San Gimignano DOCG 2008
di Lorenzo Colombo Stavamo pensando quale vino pescare dalla nostra cantina per il nostro turno della rubrica del sabato InvecchiatIGP e la soluzione l’abbiamo trovata venerdì scorso, peraltro senza intaccare la nostra collezione di vini, quando, in occasione dei press days di Regina Ribelle siamo stati in visita all’azienda Fornacelle di Marco Giusti. Tra i numerosi vini aperti per l’occasione da Marco ci ha particolarmente colpito la Vernaccia di San Gimignano 2008, vino dal color oro antico luminoso di buona intensità. Non particolarmente esplosivo al naso dove alle note di mela, dovute alla non giovane età del vino s’aggiungevano sentori di scorza d’arancia amare e accenni d’erbe aromatiche. Anche il corpo non è certamente imponente ma sapido e succoso con sentori di nespole sul lungo fin di bocca. Un vino che ci ha particolarmente stupiti, ancora vivo e vibrante dopo 18 anni dalla vendemmia, considerando anche che si tratta di uno dei primi vini imbottigliati da Marco che ha infat

Wine Review: Exploring Less Common Spanish Reds
I found two Spanish red varieties that are nice alternatives stylistically to your typical Tempranillo based Spanish red. Let’s explore. Spain has so much more to offer in terms of red varieties besides Tempranillo and Garnacha. I’d start with Mencia from Galicia or Bierzo. Bobal is also great. Canary Island...

Is Voodoo Ranger G-Force IPA from New Belgium Brewing actually good… or just a dangerously strong cheap IPA? Up this round of A Beer Snob’s Cheap Brew Review, I crack open the 11% ABV Voodoo Ranger G-Force Supercharged Juicy Imperial IPA to see if this high-gravity craft beer delivers real flavor or just big alcohol. This massively strong IPA from New Belgium’s famous Voodoo Ranger series promises bold hops, juicy fruit character, and serious punch. But does it actually taste good, or is it just

Ep 174 Small Rooms, Big Souls – Featuring Diablo Paso | Indiginé Cellars
🍇 Where Wine Takes You – Episode Highlights 🍷 In this episode of Where Wine Takes You , Adam heads downtown, not just to taste wine, but to dig into the people helping shape the downtown Paso Robles tasting room experience. Recorded at SLO CAL Studios, this episode brings together two winemakers and brand owners with very different stories and a beautifully shared hustle: Ray Smith of Indigené Cellars and Enrique Torres of Diablo Paso. Enrique’s journey starts in Guerrero, Mexico, and continues in Paso Robles, where he arrived in 2001 and began working at the former Martin & Weyrich winery. He worked his way up from cellar rat to cellar master to assistant winemaker, eventually creating Diablo Paso, his personal love letter to Spanish varieties, old world style, hard work, and family balance. In this conversation, Enrique also drops some big news: Diablo Paso was named Winery of the Year at the Central Coast Wine Competition, with his El Nico taking Best Red, Double Gold, Best of Cla

Vigna Traverso, dove i rossi giocano un campionato a parte
Il rettangolo di gioco e il vigneto condividono un destino strano: a volte coltivano geni purissimi che scelgono di non farsi sistema, preferendo l’incanto di un’intuizione improvvisa alla fredda contabilità dei trofei. Chiunque ami il calcio degli anni Settanta conserva una memoria vivida di Ezio Vendrame, l’ala anarchica e ribelle che i cronisti dell’epoca liquidavano […] L'articolo Vigna Traverso, dove i rossi giocano un campionato a parte proviene da La Stanza del vino .

12x12 Samuel Adams Winter Break Variety Pack
Beers Included: Cold Brew Coffee Stout, Winter White Ale, Winter Lager, Old Fezzewig Purchase Date: 6 December 2025 Initial Impressions I broke my rules and bought this pack in early November when I was up in New Hampshire for a weekend. It was cold enough that it felt like winter. Not taking tasting notes at that time, I had to go back and buy this one again. For some reason I was intrigued by the Cold Brew Coffee Stout. I love dark beers, but generally prefer what I call "stout-flavored-stout". I guess I was excited to see any kind of stout in this sampler. Winter Lager has always been a stalwart; even if the recipe has been changed like other Sam Seasonals. Interestingly, the marketing company I work for doing brand ambassador work posted Sam Adams tastings with instructions to tell drinkers that Winter White was replacing Winter Lager as Sam's winter seasonal. Beer, cigar, fresh air and lake views Old Fezzewig is a beer I look for every year. Beer reviews Cold Bre
