Great show. Now I will need to go try some Brunellos so I can answer the question of day. I do have a question for you. I noticed that you have Vayniac Wine Glasses on the show but I can not find them on your on-line store. Do you sell them to the public.

I love brunello, but I love the rossos better. Sometimes I taste a little too much oak in the brunello and I find a little less in the rosso di montalcino. But when I can afford a good brunello, they totally kill it. I like the Fanti and the one we serve where I work. They make an awesome rosso as well. I’ll send you one to taste on the show. It’s very old world and I think we need to see some more old world style wines on the show. I used to love the fruit bomb but as I move farther away from college, I just don’t like jello shots and vodka in coolaid as much.

QOTD I have not tasted too many Brunellos…..yet. For a cheese pairing my vote is a really sharp provolone or parm-regianno (my fave).

Great episode. Enthusiasm is still high. I like it.

QOTD: I think my first Brunello experience was my most memorable. I may have had “better” brunellos, but there’s nothing like that first sip of a new wine that really grabs your attention and makes you want to explore more. I had it this past January and it was the Livio Sassetti Brunello di Montalcino Pertimali 1998.

Brunello and cheese? Depends on the style of brunello but I would say parmaggiano-reggiano.

Ciao!

QOTD- ‘97 Friggiali Riserva from a 3 liter at my wedding reception. Not the finest I’ve ever had, but I’ll never forget it. Cheese with Brunello? Got to be a Pecorino Toscana that was made at the same winery as the Brunello you’re drinking with it.
