You haven't tried the Cicala, have you? How does it compare, if you have?

| Yeeeeeeah! Awesome stuff, Jason. I tasted it at the winery in June, and it kicked ass. Notes here. Hey whiner - why don't you pick up a bottle of Cicala to bring to dinner on the 4th?   Just kidding! | | | |

| Nice note. I bought the Bussia Soprana and hope it can be as good. | | | |
