ultra tasty louis vuitton women antheia leather sicilian
A slice of sicily visits toronto However, due to certain lcbo issues, only three possente wines were featured.Those attending made the best of a bad situation, through camaraderie and a bevy of interesting stories.There is always a story to tell. In this case, before we switch to wine talk, there is the menu louis vuitton women antheia leather and my commentary. Antipasto salumi.Very tasty although once again the rosso possente did not show up but the grillo 2013 possente did a marvellous job of complimenting the cured meats and cheeses. The primo a pappardelle ai fruitti de mare was terribly bland and, for sicilians used to the bounty of the sea and the ultra tasty louis vuitton women antheia leather sicilian vegetables, it must have been bad enough to cry.Again, the 2013 grillo possente did an admirable job with a less than worthy food mate. The secondi consisted of a lamb rack with caponata, swiss chard and cherry tomatoes(From cotsco? ).Again terribly uninspiring grano cuisine. The fromaggio was impressive with pecorino cheese and figs with three types of sicilian honey including the prized black bee honey.Some honey on a slice of pecorino was very good and could have sent me to the moon, but the cassar passito de pantelleria, made from 100% zibibbo grapes, never made it through the lcbo.As a passito, it would have matched the sweetness of honey drenched cheese and sent palates into heaven.A greater shame for me as i have never ever had wine made from zibibbo grapes. Well at least there was a rather limited presentation of wines from possente, and i had the opportunity to meet with maria possente, who was very concerned with what i thought about the quality of possente wines. I told her fair and reasonably priced.What a great shame most canadians are totally ignorant of the wines we sampled. Possente grillo 2013 an igp terre sicilianne.It"s organic with wonderful aromas of apricot, peach, and pineapple, but restrained and disciplined.On the palate the same as aromas.Perfectly balanced with a muted acidity.Strongly reminiscent of a greek moschofilero. A great sipping wine and a tremendous seafood match.The grano pappardelle was no match for the grillo as the former had no character to compliment the wine.What a waste.$18.10 available(As all the other possente wines described here)Through divino wine merchants(416.829.0243). Really folks, get out of your chardonnay and riesling rut and try a grillo.Produced from louis vuitton sale bags grillo grapes grown at 350 metres.12.5% alcohol and no oak. Although i rated it an 87, which is not the highest score of the evening, it was my favourite wine of the night. There was also a 2013 nero d"avola/syrah blend which had aromas of raw black fruit, watermelon, black currants and black cherry.Tannic and no pussycat and on the palate, infused with long, black fruit. Maria possente explained to me this wine is a popular banquet wine in sicily.Given its $10 cost in ontario, that may not come as a surprise.I give it an 87. The possente nero d" avola was the point star of the night.Aromas were varied full of plum, raisins, chocolate, sour cherry, and rhubarb.On the palate smoke, bark, and black cherry.Compact and rich with a long finish. It gets a 91/100 from me, louis vuitton outlet uk and this is only reinforced against a cross testing of the nero d"avola/syrah mix above, which suddenly takes on a harsher and unsophisticated identity immediately after trying this wine. It"s organic and produced at 350 metres.No oak involved, so you are getting the real thing.13% alcohol. Poor sicily.Such a beautiful and historical island producing wines from obscure grapes such as nero d"avola, zibibbo, grillo, catarratto, frappato, perricone, greciano, and nerello masalese will take conservative north american wine drinkers way outside their comfort zone.
