Quick Wine Shout Out
This is a terrific white wine that has been offered at "BLOW OUT PRICES" here in NYC- some good bottle age and from a world-renowned producer- check it out:
2005 Lacryma Christi Del Vesuvio (Mastroberardino)
Deep gold- Ripe melon with hazelnut aromas- bracing (but balanced) acidity intertwined with rich ripe fruit (honey and melon). Small citrus component (a squeeze of lemon), some limestone and the hazelnuts- moderate to long finish.
100% Coda di Volpe del Vesuvio- grown nowhere else in the world... at $9 a bottle this is the buy of the summer- find it while you can.
Mastroberardino's entire lineup is worth checking out- phenomenal producer!
