On Tuesday I’ll be at Vine Wine in BK pouring some new bubbles from 6.30 to 8.30 ; the tasting is free so don’t be a fugazi and come say hi, have a glass and buy yourself a bottle. Zlatan Ibrahimovic will be there to @iamzlatanibrahimovic @travismontague @sete_vininaturali @vinewinenyc #notafugazi #iambackintown #newyorkcity #andiamo #scuolaisflexing #vinonaturale #sulphurnograzie

@cantinaindigeno @fradeitalianbistro league A Cerasuolo ... tastes like salted cranberries ... so pure ... #notafugazi #incredibile #cerasuolo #zerozero #vinonaturale #andiamo

In these last couple of years, I have been pretty much obsessed in learning more about what’s happening in Emilia, where I am originally from. After several trips, lunches, dinners, tastings, and a few extra pounds around my belly ... 😅🤦‍♂️ I came to a conclusion that Emilian white grapes, like Trebbiano Modenese and Trebbiano di Spagna (Modena), Spergola (Reggio) , Malvasia (Piacenza) and Pignoletto (Bologna) can be truly magic in the right hands... busting the myth that the best whites of Italy come from Trentino-Alto Adige. Also other regions like Veneto, Lazio, Liguria, Campania, Sardegna and Abruzzo are all proving the same point. I have put together a selection of microscopic wineries to bring soon to the US. to showcase the potentials of this region and to help these small realities to emerge and do well in the US market. This is a new project of Grechetto Gentile aka Pignoletto on chalky soil outside of Bologna from a tiny winery farming with strict biodynamic principles and not messing around during winemaking. Pignoletto 3 ways: fermo, spumante, and frizzante. Bottles don’t last long once they are open .. and that’s always a great sign. Labels are not finished yet .. but we are almost there. This is a super cool spiral representing the dynamization of the biodynamic preparations made by the one and only @aucadesign ; I think I’ll take over the Pignoletto category in the US 😅😊 that has been neglected for to long by introducing 4-5 new Pignoletto makers ... with even a couple of 0/0 options, that are probably the most fun ones since flavors are so pure. Excited for what’s coming..can’t wait for these new wines to be in and bring a piece of natty Emilia to the US 🗽💣🔥🛫#andiamo #notafugazi #emilia #soontotheus #newprojects #scuolaisflexing #pignoletto #scuolaisflexing #vinonaturale #biodinamica

After a long wait ... the 3 Monocromos are finally back in NYC 💣🔥🗽Mario Macciocca has done it again with his pure-refreshing Passerina and earthy-naked Cesanese in both a red and a Rosato version ..putting Piglio back on the map in an area where unsulphured wines have never been made. #monocromo #season #andiamo #newjuice #notafugazi #newyork #zerozero #daje #noso2 #vinonaturale #naturalwine #organicwine #lazio

Having lunch and hanging out with famous Nunzio and with “The Professore” aka as “Prof” in the center of Modena. The Professor was the very first to make a metodo classico of Sorbara in the late 1960s in Modena. He also vinifies the extremely rare Trebbiano di Spagna in both a dry and refermented version and last works with Pignoletto. According to him, his Sorbara is unmatched “smells like violets and tastes like salty raspberries” ... his Spagna is the best out there “there isn’t anything better than Spagna” and his Pignoletto is made with the Grechetto di Todi clone that gives amazing results and “tastes like almonds but it’s not bitter”. After talking about wine for most of the afternoon and drinking a few bottles together, the Professore agrees to organize a visit and let me try his wines at the end of August. Can’t wait to try them (he has back vintages from the 1970s) and learn as much as I can about this area from this Modenese legend!! His wines are not for sale!! 💣👏🔥 #theprofessor #legend #modena #andiamo #oldschool #lunch #oldtimers #spagna #sorbara #vinonaturale #naturalwine #modena #emilia #notafugazi #noso2
