Saturday Tasting
Coppa Piemonte
Join me on Saturday, September 14th, from 1-4 pm, and taste great value in authentic wines from Italy’s Piedmont region.
2021 Coppo “L’Avvocata” Barbera d’Asti, Piedmont, Italy – This wine jumps out of the glass with plump and ripe blueberry aromas that evolve into a touch of fresh leather and wildflowers. The palate is forward and full of jammy mixed berry fruits. The wine is easygoing, showing all, it has from the beginning to the plush and easy finish. Wine Enthusiast: 89 $16.00
2021 Coppo “La Rocca” Cortese, Gavi, Piedmont, Italy – Made from 100% Cortese grapes, this Gavi presents intense aromas of passionfruit, celery leaf, and lemon cucumber that tickle the nose. Zesty on the palate, it surprises with flavors of Asian melon, grapefruit and fresh herbs. $19.00
2021 Coppo “Costebianche” Chardonnay Piedmont, Italy – This Chardonnay is a ringer for a fresh Burgundy-style white wine. It offers tasty apple and pear fruit shaded by a floral element and lingering fresh finish. $21.00
2018 Coppo Barolo, Piedmont, Italy – This Nebbiolo wine is surprisingly approachable for a young Barolo. It is very traditional and offers classic aromas/flavors of menthol accented by ripe cherry fruit and savory, warm spices on the mellow, yet chewy rich finish. $33.00
