2005 Rosso di Montepulciano Casanova di Neri ($45.00) 8/27/07 - sweet jammy nose and the tannins were dusty. I was underwhelmed, still good. Last tasted 2007 Drink now-2013
2004 Avignonesi Sangiovese (blend) - Vino Noble di Montepulciano, Italy
It’s the wine of the poets and the noblemen. It’s a bit bigger bodied than a Chianti Classico but has many similarities. With red cherries, and mouth-drying acidity it’s hard to resist speaking with your hands. Last tasted 2007 Drink now-2015

Wine and Waves
I'm lucky to be a 31-year-old surf punk that gets to sample rare wines like the 1922 Pol Roger, the 1959 Petrus and the 2001 D.R.C. Richebourg--that doesn't mean those wines are always good, or worth the price. Since I've worked as a sommelier (in Monterey, CA) for high-end restaurants like Casanova, the Sardine Factory, and Marinus, I've honed my palate and I can choose a good bottle that won't break the bank. When I have enough time and money, I like to travel with my girl Lindsay Jackson to places with great wine and waves. I'm a certified sommelier (Court of Master Sommeliers) and am available to drink wine. Call: 831-521-8606 or e-mail: pwetterau@gmail.com
