need expert opinions

[scimmiatinit]

Dear Roberto it was not my intention to start a new discussione with You but only to say my opinion...

OK let's RE-read:
"If you were going to receive a special gift bottle what would your wish list include?"
I, me,Fabio, Scimm will wish Barolo, Barbaresco, Brunello & Amarone, ...

"..he's partial to reds and I read that the wines from Tuscany and Piedmont are some of the finest."
Abruzzo, Umbria, Lombardia,
...maybe there is somethin' I miss ?!

I like both Sertoli Salis Valtellina Sforzato Canua and Sagrantino di Montefalco (Bea unfortunately never tasted)...I didn't mean they are not a classic, I just think Barolo, Barbaresco, Brunello, Amarone are "the classic" of italian production.

Maybe for me "classic" is not only about history because in this case (and sense) Italy is full of classic producers&wines...


We are talkin' about a present for someone We don't know much about. Just is love for Italy ! Maybe He alreay has(d) Barolo, Barbaresco,.. Great... I am so sure He will appreciate another one...

Let's go on:
please,... please... Valentini(not Valentino who is a very important stylist...smile!) is ANOTHER PLANET from Illuminati and Pepe (who are still good producers, I like their wines and I also wrote recently very good notes about Pepe).

Finally...I don't really care about how many tre bicchieri any poducer can take I TASTE MYSELF !!!
Of course I read guides (Veronelli +/-, Maroni(indecent!), Masnaghetti, my favourite, and not only the GR, which results I posted on this forum, some time ago, hopin' in some interesting replies from all of You out there... but they never arrived! ).
I only read them to compare my personal notes... sometimes to discover somethin' new(Veronelli&Masnaghetti overall)... and to know which bottles/prices will go higher.. & higher(GR)...

PS
Maybe choosing a classic amarone Bertani or Santa Sofia would have been more appropriate than Allegrini...
sorry ! forgive me ! ....
