Nipozzano Chianti Rufina Riserva 2008
If you need a perfect gift for Dad, that special man in your life, here is a wine from the Frescobaldi family, one of Italy's oldest wine making families, with 700 years of history. Among their award winning wines is the lovely Nipozzano Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG made from Sangiovese. This wonderfully complex deep purplish red wine retails for $22 and is currently Wine Enthusiast's wine of the year. Barbecued meats, beef stews and aged cheeses are several serving suggestions. For information, click here.
Artezin Zinfandel
Artezin Zinfandel is a bold choice for Father's Day, and not just because Zinfandel is a uniquely American favorite for backyard barbecuing. Artezin offers a Mendocino wine that is a wonderful balance of zesty, peppery flavors and aromas of dark cherries, raspberries and licorice. It's a manly wine that Mom can appreciate for a bit of restraint on the ripe fruit that sometimes causes Zins to be overly alcoholic. Pair this one with roasted meats and steaks on the grill. What Father's Day choice could be easier? $18 For information, click here.
Lucente 2009
For Dad, the Luce della Vite vineyard in Italy has the perfect gift. Lucente 2009 is appropriate for celebrations or a casual BBQ. This Tuscan gem is a beautiful balance of Merlot, Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon with dark, warm and silky notes.In appearance Lucente 2009 presents a purplish red with violet highlights, clear and concentrated. The nose opens with aromas of red-skinned fruits, amarasca (deep red) cherry, wild strawberries, black pepper and milk chocolate; followed by pure nuances of licorice and mineral notes of graphite that are also found in Luce. Pairing flawlessly with roasted meats and cheeses, Lucente makes for a refined wine for Dad, without a rarefied price tag. $29 For information, click here.
