Rooftop Rumble, Carla's Boyfriend & Plastic Surgery. Mob Wives Reunion-SIP.WATCH.TWEET™

Mob Wives Reunion with Host Wendy Williams! SIP.WATCH.TWEET™
We're Sipping: La Tunella "Rjgialla" '09 Ribolla Gialla



TEAM DRITA
If you think this season was crazy you haven't seen ANYTHING yet! Drita and Karen have heated words about their "Roof Top Rumble", Renee talks about plastic surgery and after an argument about Carla's boyfriend Renee walks off in tears; after calling Carla "restylane filler".  Check out the previews on Vh1: CLICK TO PREVIEW

The only complaint I have is that there were not enough episodes! I am elated that they have already signed for a season TWO. I'm even more excited about what is in store for Mob Wives, Season 2, SIP.WATCH.TWEET™. Can't announce it yet but stay tuned...

Now on to the SIP of SIP.WATCH.TWEET™


The Ribolla grape is extremely popular in Italy yet extremely overlooked in the United States. Grown in Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of northeast Italy the Ribolla's crisp notes are pleasantly refreshing in the warm summer days and nights. 

La Tunella Ribolla glistens hues of translucent cornsilk and goldenrod color in your glass. The nose begins with top notes of mango, middle/top notes of apple and apricot. This Ribolla is wonderfully full bodied with layers of summer fruit flavors. Nectarine, kiwi, white peach and meyer lemon. The finish is long and leaves a pleasant note of orange blossom honey.

Drita goes DRITA! Season Finale Mob Wives SIP.WATCH.TWEET™ with Ermacora Friulano

Watch Drita "go DRITA" on the Finale Fight Heard All Around The [Staten]Island
SIP.WATCH.TWEET™ Mob Wives with Ermacora '09 Friulano

I don't like this one little bit. The only thing keeping me from a dark depression because of the ending of Mob Wives this Sunday is they have already signed on for a second season. As a "Housewives Reality TV Junkie" I find Mob Wives at the top of their game. It's raw and real emotion with raw and real issues. They don't live on the Upper East Side. They don't have mansions the size of the Chelsea. They aren't "ladies who lunch"... I started the season liking all the wives for the most part but slowly and surely I lost affection for Karen Gravano. Especially with her ongoing [even if on again off again] fight about Drita marrying Lee [Karen's ex-boyfriend]. Love, Love Drita. Renee grew on me and Carla's so easy going how can you not like her?

Well, it appears the Karen/Drita saga will come to blows this Sunday. It is going to be the fight heard around the [Staten] Island. Sunday, June 26 at 8p/EST on Vh1 After the season finale we'll have to get our "Mob Wives Fix" from their tweets on Twitter and wait for the Season 2 Season Premiere.

We are sipping Friulano from the Friuli northerneastern region of Italy. The Ermacora Friulano glistens with transparent wheat and light honeydew hues in your glass. The aroma embodies summer with top notes of kumquat, mandarin, lilly of the valley and lilac blending into the bottom notes of thai basil and thyme. A little rounder and fuller than an Italian Pinot Grigio the Friulano coats your palate with layers of fruit blends: apricot, quince and starfruit. Giving way to layers of culinary herbs like sage and verbena on the finish, which is a long clean mineral/stone-like finish. The Friulano is great alone or with antipasti. It is perfect for summer sipping.
Let's raise our glass of Ermacora Friulano and salut to the last episode of Mob Wives this summer.

Mob Wives SIP.WATCH.TWEET™ with Pumpkin Seeds & Enzo Boglietti Dolcetto d'Alba Tiglineri

Mob Wives
We're Sipping Enzo Boglietti Dolcetto d'Alba Tiglineri
SIP.WATCH.TWEET™
Pumpkin Seeds Renee?

Renee stopped the wives eating and drinking at brunch when she announces her ex-husband Junior is going to move in to her home until he goes to prison. Mouths at the table were still open in shock, disbelief and awe when Renee, very sincerely says she knows he loves her because he brought home pumpkin seeds for her. To which, Karen says "PUMPKIN SEEDS RENEE?! I mean really!" My favorite "Mob Wife", Drita says "I'd be flicking <pumpkin seeds> them at him!" [One of the many reasons I love her!] ...to make matters worse Karen let it slip that he was there last night and then confessed he'd already been there for a week! Drita put the truth out there, as Drita always does and said, "You're in love with him that's the bottom line. It's not for <your son> AJ it's for YOU."

It's no wonder, Mob Wives have signed on for a second season. It's real, it's family, it's friendship, it's drama, it's humorous, just plain good TV! I love it! So this Sunday, SIP Dolcetto d'Alba, WATCH Mob Wives on Vh1 and TWEET along!

Enzo Boglietti Dolcetto d'Alba

Deep dark cobalt violet in your glass this almost full, medium bodied Dolcetto is begging to be enjoyed with family and friends. Like with Amarone and Barolo it needs decanting for a few hours before truly enjoying the taste and aroma of this wine. Upon your first pour you'll notice the aroma of burnt dark berries mixed with sweet star anise. Enzo Boglietti's Dolcetto has a smooth and silky mouthfeel with power packed flavors of  figs, dates, bilberries and currents. Slightly tannic with hints of gogi berry and cardomon that seem to  linger on the finish.
