Scarpetta Wine

As the label says, “Scarpetta is a collaborative effort of Master Sommelier Bobby Stuckey and Chef Lachlan Patterson of Frasca Food and Wine.”

Scarpetta wine. What a great idea, and for anyone familiar with Frasca Food and Wine and Chef Lachlan Patterson, it is no surpirse. There seems to be no shortage of good ideas these days.

As an avid wine drinker (consumer perhaps might be a better word?), I was pleased to receive this bottle of Friuli Italian wine from the illustrious folks at Frasca here in Boulder. I do not pretend to be a wine expert, though I do personally consume a lot of wine. I like to say that I know what tastes good. If I don’t notice the hint of strawberry or the tobacco (or whatever else might be hiding in the bottle), I can at least tell you if I’d have another glass… or another bottle.

If I had no restraint I’d be on scarpettawine.com buying a case right now. It really was that good. I suggest if you’re interested in wines you check out Scarpetta and let me know what you think.

Enjoy responsibly, of course.
