@silveradventures there in Canada?? Oh pity. New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc it's hard to find something boring or not good in my opinion, surely there are some? Unsure on the selection of Piedmont wines Dolcetto is a minor one. You'll definitely be able to find some #appassimento wines though? Those are amazing, grab one if you find it!

Preparing my next #wine order. Leaving it in the basket to decant and wait #cybermonday? Considering the list of suggestions I kindly received and what's available at #MajesticWine, I think I'll go for #Rosé from #Provence, #Xinomavro from #Greece, #Ripasso from #Valpollicella, #Appassimento #Carménère from #Chile, #DolcettodAlba from #Piedmont and a #Merlot, #Franschhoek from #SouthAfrica. Gonna take a while for it to be tasted it all. #winelover #winegeek #winetasting

We've tried today this #whitewine #Passimento #Garganega wine, it was very interesting, complex, floral, acidity well balanced. Really liked it, totally recommend this. Would have thought that an #appassimento wine would have more body, reminded me a lot the #Cortese #Gavi wine to be honest. #wine #winelover #winetasting #winegeek.

@Persiangirl sounds like you like reds with complex taste and body. Have you ever tried #Primitivo di Manduria, #Cannonau or #Appassimento ? #winelover #wine #winetasting #winegeek
