Recently.
2010 - Luneau Papin, Dom. Pierre De La Grange VV. delicious. fruit in the front, rocks in the back and was without an acidic slap in the face that the 2010 Clos De Briords offered (which wasn’t off-putting, mind you)
2009 - Ferrando Canavese (La Torrazza). approachable, and not as tannic as i was expecting. Delicious with sunday sauce over orecchiette and lardo.
speaking for pork fat - I did a quick dry cure of pork fat, and cubed it for a carbonara. results were encouraging, certainly helped by the fact that I added one more egg than i likely needed (whenever in doubt…..)
