"If one were to cut the arm of a Piemontese, he would bleed Dolcetto."
Bruno Giacosa is considered the last word in Italian wine, and Bruno himself, the genius of Neive (traditions of excellence have continued since his daughter Bruna took the reigns.) I had the lovely opportunity to soak in some of these heart-warming masterpieces at Liner & Elsen Wine Merchants. If you haven't stopped in their shop on NW 23rd, I highly recommend a nice little pursue.
I have to say Italians have never been my passion, but these wines stoked an undying flame of love. Oh, the expensive tastes...
