My name is better than yours!

Howdy ya'll! This is K Syrah! from the dirty south, Hotlanta Ga. commenting on the G R E A T italian wine dinner in Charlotte NC. I also am a huge fan of the Primosic family pinot Grigios. The friuli p.g. is a perfect wine for the chard. drinkers looking to convert to the "un-oaked" side. It is creamy, rich and softer in style with less acidity than what u would normally expect from a p.g. and bursting with great fruit! The 2006 Primosic Collio Pinot Grigio is also another great example of the soft and rich creamy style of the friuli region fruit yet more complex and elegantly styled with racey, mouth-watering acidity and some minerality finishing of the everlasting finish. A must try! WOW! What more can I say about the Azelia wines from the near perfect winemaker, Luigi Scavino. He hails from the Piedmont region of italy excelling in Barolo's! Please do yourself a favor and try ANY of his beautifully crafted wines ranging from the softer styled barbera's with a ton of fruit, great acidity and lower tannic structure, making this wine perfect for ALL occasions, to the 2003 San Rocco single vineyard Barolo. What a treat today and I'm sure even better ten years from now! Violets, berries,and spice reign supreme on the nose, followed by nearly sweet plum and cherry on the palate with some serious yet velvety tannic structure making the finish.....hell, I'm STILL tasting it a month later!! These wines are unforgettable! Well, dinner is callin'! Hope you enjoy!


Till next time,
