Sip & Stream: 2021 Nesios Cabernet-Sangiovese Super Tuscan x The Leftovers
I started watching The Leftovers during COVID then sort of stopped. Not for any real reason, probably started watching something else, but I never finished it. It was actually pretty intriguing and I loved the actors in it — Justin Theroux, The Gilded Age’s Carrie Coon, Liv Tyler, Margaret Qualley, and The Handmaid’s Tale Ann Dowd.
The series was created by Damon Lindelof who also created the series Lost and Mrs. Davis. It’s both a psychological drama and supernatural mystery that takes place three years after the disappearance of 2% of the global population in an unexplained event. It follows a group of people in a small New York community who are coping with the tragedy of their missing loved ones. Streaming: 3 seasons.
I love me a Super Tuscan! The 2021 Nesios Cabernet-Sangiovese has a beautiful ruby red hue with tasting notes of intense dark cherry, blackberry, and plum and aromas of chocolate, spices, and Tuscan herbs. This is perfectly paired with a homemade Italian dish and a deeply intense series like The Leftovers. Order this bottle and have it delivered to your door!
Happy Streaming! 🍷 📺
