Bringing robust notes of dried fruit, tobacco and some scorched earth, followed by dried cherries, figs and camphor ash, the 2015 Ca'Linverno packs the kind of yee-haw you're looking for in any pairing with Texas barbecue. This is a broad-shouldered wine that shows robust intensity throughout its 15.5% alcohol, mid-weight package. This is an IGT blend of 80% Corvina, 10% Rondinella, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Croatina. The fruit is left to air-dry for 30 days. Some 40,000 bottles were made, and you get terrific value here.

The 2013 Ca'Linverno is made in a unique process in which grapes are left to shrivel and dry out on the vines until after winter ("inverno" in Italian). The wine is plump and juicy with high extract and an impressive level of aromatic intensity. You get those distinctive aromas of raisin, prune or dried fruit with sweet back-end notes of rum cake, mocha and spice. The wine offers very attractive thickness and roundness in terms of texture. There is noticeable residual sugar on the close.
