Sustainable, handcrafted, delicious Super Elena
August 18, 2008
A few people have expressed interest in the Renato Fenocchio Barbera d'Alba "Super Elena" 2004 we poured at vinocamp last Saturday. It is 100% Barbera from the renowned Starderi Vineyard in Barbaresco. Each and every bottle has an individually hand-painted label. There were 113 Magnums made and 75 were imported to North America. They retail for around $200. There are 60 remaining. If you want one they are available at Firefly Fine Wines at 12th and Cambie. You can also email me directly, I and can help you track down a bottle wherever you live- anthony@farmsteadwines.com

It was such a beautiful wine. I wish I’d been able to have a private moment of worship with it!
Thanks so much for sharing it with us, Anthony.

It really was a great wine Anthony! Here’s hoping you get to bring in more from them in the future!
Also, Boris and I have it sitting at 95.5 points on Cork’d :-)
