Wine Notes

I've always been fond of young, fresh and chilled French gamays. There are other, less obvious red wines that are also great chilled, some as far south as Puglia. This list will grow, as I will add as I discover more:

• Bardolino, Monte del Fra (Veneto)
• Fichimori, Tormaresca-Antinori (Puglia): 100% negroamaro
• Pallavicini Rubillo Cesanese 2008 (Lazio)
• Alois Lageder Sudtirol 2006 (Alto Adige): 100% Pinot Nero
• Barbera del Monferrato, La Briosa Montalbera (Piedmonte): 100% Barbera
• Wein, R&A Pfalffl, a blend of zweigelt and pinot noire from Austria
