Aldo Vacca of Produttori del Barbaresco Tonight: '05, '06 Barbarescos and '08 Nebbiolo delle Lange

Don't forget to stop by tonight and taste with Aldo Vacca of Produttori del Barbaresco, winemaker extraordinaire for the farmers' cooperative of Barbaresco, whose wines regularly outperform and outclass considerably more expensive "estate" Barbarescos. Goodness knows you cannot have enough ageworthy (and affordable) Nebbiolo in your crawl space. I don't. More to the point, if you are a Burgundy freak, Aldo's wines will immediately appeal to you. He's all about fragrance, super-fine delineation, and lively acidity. So as a public service, we'll offer one-night only special pricing on the Aldo's current releases, including the 2005 single-vineyard Riservas, the 2006 Barberesco DOCG and the young vine Barbaresco Nebbiolo delle Lange 2008.

I know it's Monday night, but are we not men and women? Open house from 5:30 - 7:00pm. Read More:>>
