"It's not just a job, it's not just a hobby, it's a lifestyle." This is just one guy's opinion who happens to taste a few thousand wines in the course of a year. And as wine folk know, this is a thirsty business, so I wash it all down with an ale and maybe even a whiskey (Tequila or gin when the thermometer soars). So take this all with a shaker of salt and forgive me my mispellings.

1998 Vallee d'Aoste Donnas

Really obscure, but what I had @ the end of the night @ Que Padre on North Ave. Really, really, reaaaaaaaaalllllllllyyyyy, mature. But hey, I loved it. It made me hungry every time I took a sip & I had a big dinner @ the aforementioned supper club. If you're a fan of dried cherries (& who isn't) try a Langhe Rosso from 1998 if you can't track this bad boy down. Like I said, ultra obscure, but if you're reading this, you know that already.
