Until I became involved in the Industry I had no idea how hard service professionals work to make other people happy. Steve Cranny

So in honour of National Waiter’s Day and all of those great service people I would like to recommend a wine that I have enjoyed across several vintages.

The Caparzo Brunello di Montalcino is a wonderful dark ruby wine that hits the palate like velvet. The last bottle that I had the opportunity to drink was a 2005.

It was a medium-bodied wine that tasted of dark cherries, blackberry, herbs and licorice. quotation-marks-right

This wonderful wine partnered well with pasta covered with meat sauce and topped with Pecorino cheese.
