Totalwine

It's the time of year Totalwine offers 20% on all old world wines. I am stocking up some amarone and nebbiolos. Anyone has similar plans or had experience with their Italian wines?

I was there last weekend and picked up several Aglianicos.

Great idea. I am adding Aglianico into my list. How does it taste?

Big, bold, dry and tannic. Cherry, Anise, tobacco. I love it.

Try the Tenuta del Portale 2008 Riserva. If I recall correctly, it's normally $19.99.

I got it last night. Very impressive tanning, acidity and umami. I love it!
