The La Zerba Estate
This is a family run winery located in the village of Tassarolo, in the Piemonte region.
The La Zerba Vineyard
The estate spreads over 10 hectares (24.7 acres). The vineyard is located 1,476 feet above sea level. This high elevation leads to crisp, white wines that have zesty, mineral and lively characteristics. Historically, the wines of Tassarolo have lead the DOC of Gavi as the best in the region, not Gavi di Gavi, which is all about marketing. The estate is 8.5 hectares (21 acres) and produces classic Gavi. Furthermore, in top years a special cru is produced called Terra Rossa, Gavi. The DOC Gavi was founded in 1974 and consists of these villages: Gavi, Tassarolo, Novi Ligure, Pasturana, Capriatta D’Orba, Serravalle Scrivia, San Cristo Toro, Parodi, Bosio, and Carosio. The grape of Gavi is Cortese.

Argyle Reserve Pinot Noir is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir.
Pinot Noir thrives in Willamette Valley's long growing seasons with cool autumn breezes and sunny days. This culmination of extra time on the vine yields aromatics of crunchy dried leaves, pomegranate molasses, black tea leaves, and tart cherries. Earthy undertones and great textured tannins that continue to smooth out with time - adding to the body and longevity.
Review:
Rich and polished, this Pinot offers multilayered raspberry and blueberry flavors. Shows dusky spice and fresh forest floor accents while building structure toward refined tannins.

Capra Marco Sireveris Dolcetto d'Alba is made from 100 percent Dolcetto.
From Marco Capra's family estate in Piedmont, founded at Santo Stefano Belbo in 1945, "Sireveris" is a classic Dolcetto d'Alba. The grapes are grown at around 400 meters on limestone soils and hand-harvested in September; despite the name, which points to the fruit rather than the wine, Dolcetto finishes dry.
Deep ruby with violet highlights, it leads with ripe cherry and dark berry fruit and closes full and dry, with the gentle, almond-tinged bitterness that is the mark of the variety. An easy, supple, food-friendly red made to enjoy young.
