Crisp apple. Bit of lemon/citrus. Light floral notes on the nose. Needs a decant - it’s Italian. Acidic - cut through some leftover wagyu without hesitation. Fun — 2 months ago

Dark cherry. Tobacco. Tar. Stone. Dark dried fruits. Amazing nose. Evolves. Can age forever. I think the Vaillerano is becoming my favorite La Spinetta. — 21 days ago

Appealing nose - floral, citrus. Some would enjoy the richness in the palate - but it’s a tad fat for my liking - certainly enjoyable, but I expected more for the price. — 15 days ago
