Every once in a while a producer stops in whose wines are so KILLER that they deserve immediate attention and this happened yesterday as Andrea Franchetti was in town to showcase some of the new wines from both his Tuscan property and his new winery located on Mount Etna, Sicily- Passopisciaro. After trying the entry level wine from Andrea's new estate in Sicily last summer and determining this wine was worth further investigation, I ordered all of the Contrada wines. This entry level wine entitled Passopisciaro was so unique I figured the Contrada or single vineyard wines would have to be mind blowing. So I did something that I rarely do, I ordered them on the pre-sell before I had tasted them. I assumed since they only produce 2500 bottles of each wine, that they would probably be sold out before I would have an opportunity to try them. This is an informative wine production highlighting the wines at the Wine Watch, in Fort Lauderdale. It is intended as a companion to Wine Watch Email offers.
