Fancy Food Show Wine Discoveries: Italy

The last wine discovery from this year's Fancy Food Show in DC was an Italian gem in Puglia, Tenute Girolamo. They were the perfect find as I was hosting #Winechat the following evening on Puglia, the heel of Italy's boot and one of my favorite wine regions. Tenute Girolamo is located in the Valle d'Itria between the [...]

Wine Discoveries: Italy in Sonoma

Saturday I discovered three fun Italian wines in Sonoma...Sonoma Restaurant and Wine Bar in Washington, DC that is. ;) The first wine was over dinner (very good food by the way) and part of the Tiny Bubbles wine flight, a comparison of sparkling wines. The flights at Sonoma are generous pours so you really get a [...]

Summer’s Last Rosés: Cantina del Locorotondo Cummerse

The second rosé I grabbed off the wine rack for this week's last summer beach trip was from our June trip to Puglia, Italy (Italy's largest wine producer). I was so impressed with Puglia's wines, especially their rosés made from local varietals like Primitivo and Negroamaro. This rosé is from the Cantina del Locorotondo just outside the [...]

Puglia: The Rosé Had Me at First Sip!

After our four hour drive across Italy from Positano, we arrived at the lovely Masseria Torre Coccaro just in time for our first fabulous meal. As the drive was a bit tiring, it was definitely wine time! As I perused the very local wine list, the sommelier recommended selections including several from a winery not [...]
