Here’s my new video shopping for Thanksgiving in Italy! #napavalleywineacademy
・・・
Lately we’ve been talking a lot about experiential learning. That’s because it’s not only effective, it’s FUN. If you’re ready to expand your horizons in wine education, NOW is the time to act.

We have a few more spots in our curated, behind-the-scenes wine tours. If you want to visit the birthplace of Riesling and Pinot Noir in Germany, or sample the ancient yet forward-thinking wine regions of Greece...this is your chance for a wine tour of a lifetime.

This Sunday we got away and went to the foot of our biggest mountain #Monviso, more well known for the apples and stone. But where did I find myself? Of course in a vineyard!

I watched an older man tying the vines after pruning. You can see his willow coming from the tree on the property ready to use as ties. Love it!

🍷The #Capalot Barolo from @albertoburzi winery

🍷The #Capalot Barolo from @albertoburzi winery is a very special wine for many reasons.

🍇One is that The fermentation and maceration (skin contact) time is very long. This is done with submerged cap.

🎩Not everybody uses this technique. What does submerged cap mean? In @wordonthegrapevine it is described as widely being used in Europe in the 19th century where planks hold the cap submerged under the surface of the must. This means the cap is always in contact with the must and never disrupted as it may be with pump-overs and punchdowns.

🚚We just featured this wine as one of the most special bottles in our Fall shipment last month!

Thank you @caterinaburzi for sharing this picture of the last racking done with skins out of the tank!

Can’t wait to taste in the upcoming years!

This year we thought of offering up local artisan products that could go well with your #Thanksgiving meal… Italian style!

It was a mad dash involving lots of trial and errors, finding and building boxes and cussing a lot in Italian trying to get boxes out on time so they will arrive for Thanksgiving. We are thankful to live in a place with so many delicious products to share with our wine club members!

🦶🏼Do you like to dip your toes in before you take the plunge? I’m a little like that too.

So if you’ve wanted to join our club then here is how to try things out without fully diving in.

You can try our one time only Thanksgiving Reds 🍷full of unique wines from small Piemontese producers! Link to offer is in bio but packages are limited and we will stop taking orders this weekend!

🍇Langhe Nebbiolo… my go to wine. Some are stainless steel and easy drinking while others are basically what we call a “baby Barolo”.

😎Our group tasted the wine blind @roccheviberti and all agreed without a doubt that this was their flagship Rocche Barolo. I nailed the 2012 vintage so I was pretty confident until…

😮We found out it was not Barolo but Langhe Nebbiolo!

👉🏼Moral of the story: Although Langhe Nebbiolo is more approachable, it can still age!
This one is destined to be a Barolo with 18 months of oak until Claudio tastes from the different barrels and decides which have less potential. Only then does it become reclassified as a Langhe Nebbiolo and will be released sooner than the minimum requirement. I love finding these secret baby Barolos!

🍁November means T H A N K S G I V I N G !!! But I’m in Italy🙁 boohoo

🦃That’s ok though, we have plenty of Italian versions of Thanksgivingish type foods that I can’t wait to share with you!

🌽The first is an ancient corn variety with only 8 rows and in fact, it is called (otto file) Its small slender shape makes machine harvesting difficult so it is picked by hand. It is made into polenta by grinding with an old stone mill making it wholemeal and more nutritious. It does take 1 hour to cook but the aromas and flavors of this AUTHENTIC polenta is worth it!🥘

🧺We will be offering this up in a Thanksgiving package this week so stay tuned and sign up for our newsletter! (Link in bio)

🍷🍷🍷Comparative tasting (horizontal) of very different single vineyards of #Barolo. This is the best way to learn about the fascinating terroir and crus 🍷🍷🍷

1️⃣ Fossati - #LaMorra
sweeter nose, ripe 🍒with nice texture and silky yet present tannins. Super long finish!
2️⃣ Monvigliero - #Verduno
A bit more shy on the nose but with beautiful hints of dried 🌹, orange rinds with a nice spicy finish
3️⃣ Mosconi- #Monforte
Clayey earthy nose which was still a bit reserved until after about 45 min in the glass. Started to open with nice spice and juicy 🍉 flavors on the palate. Beautiful fresh acidity.
4️⃣ Lazzarito - #Serralunga
The nose on this really stood out from the rest with dried herbs, violets, licorice, dark and mineral. On palate darker fruits, spice and long finish!!! 💪🏼

All made in nearly the same way but each one so pure and unique. This is the beauty of Barolo!
