Benvenuto Brunello!

Dec 1, 2023

Benvenuto Brunello, an event held simultaneously in eight cities worldwide, was the debut of the storied 2019 vintage of Brunello di Montalcino, Tuscany’s classic, iconic and all-sangiovese wine. I was the presenter for one of the three American debut tastings, and have the story here.

I can’t count the number of people who tell me they are saving a bottle of this or a bottle of that for “a special occasion.” I’m here to tell you Wednesday is a special occasion and so is frozen pizza. Add Champagne (which makes it even more special) and you are good to go.

We wrapped up the latest Chicago @finevintagewine @wsetglobal Level 3 course today with a round of great bubbles before starting the exam so everyone was in good spirits (and spit the wines, mostly). Yesterday we ended the day exploring fortified wines and an enterprising student had the foresight to bring a few treats to accompany the Ports (thanks Dan!). This is an intensive course but we are blessed to have groups of dedicated and fascinating students who meet the challenge head on!

Lunch with dynamic Bordeaux producer Véronique Bonnie of Ch. Malartic-Lagravière and a chance to get an inside view of climate change, production advances, soils and more in one of my favorite AOCs. The opportunity to taste the refined DiamAndes from Uco Valley was a bonus! @bodegadiamandes @malarticlagraviere @pessacleognan

A great way to end an evening tasting of the wines of @pauljabouletaine with @antoine_collet and @floridawineacademy Extraordinary balance and refinement, and now on my wish list!

Savory Umami flavors are notoriously difficult partners for many wines but they play nice with the subtle flavor of sake. With the irrepressible @looksmelltaste (Gabe Urrutia) as the guru, @sawarestaurant brought @sake.sip.savor to Coral Gables - brilliant pairings for four sake styles, one in a cocktail and three with some exceptional bites. Kampai indeed!
