Robiola and Tomme Verte, along with some suppresata and a 1997 Barolo Vigna Rocche (Andrea Oberto) in front of the TV watching the game tonight. The game is better than the wine.
Just one more sip.

Cypress Grove "Truffle Tremor." Excellent. Found a place that has it reasonably fresh.

You're right, for the most part. Several years ago, I bought some of this wine at a huge discount from a local retailer, based on the score. It's a decent wine and showing a bit better of late. I gave a bottle of this to futronic. I'd be interested in what he thinks of it.

Good idea, he is good with his Italians. I'll watch for his TN.

Please comment on the Trugole. Also, if you don't mind, where did you get it ? I had it once at a local restaurant here in S. Fla and thought it was a top cheese. Have been trying to purchase it to no avail. Was wondering if it is truly worth seeking out via shipping in.
Inky, I bought it here at a local cheese shop. Let me know if you would like me to ship some to you. I love the stuff and would be happy to ship some if you like.

Haven't tasted it in some time but my note is HERE.

Good call. We do like the Boschetto al Tartufo Bianchetto, which we've had many times before, but this time it's Caciotta Dei Boschi. Wanted to try something new, but keep with the truffles
