Uvaggio Coste della Sesia Rosso Nebbiolo Blend 2019

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course two hours. The 2019 “Uvaggio”pours, a bright garnet color with a transparent core, moving to a rose colored rim. Medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of Morello cherry, strawberry, raspberry, pink roses, talcum powder, a smell that reminds me of the produce section in a grocery store of a developing country (yeah, it’s specific but, fight me), dried green herbs, and stony earth. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose, the finish is long, juicy and a touch spicy with a bit of black pepper that I find quite intriguing. A delicious pairing with lamb/beef kofta. All in all, another brilliant vintage of “Uvaggio” and further proof that the work of Luca DeMarchi at Proprieta Sperino is worthy of serious attention. Drink now through 2034. — 23 days ago

Il Franc Cabernet Franc 2009

100% Cab Franc from...Piedmont? Yup. Courtesy of Paolo de Marchi, owner/winemaker of Isole e Olena. Long sur lie and barrel ageing creates a medium bodied, rich yet elegant wine with supple tannins. Earthy, cassis and pepper flavors — 9 years ago

Lessona Nebbiolo 2016

100% Spanna. My first example from this producers. Many wines from Alto Piemonte are blends as allowed but not this. Sour cherry mint tobacco tar dried herbs. Traditionally made with no heavy oak. Could age longer to see morev tertiary aspects come up. — 2 months ago

Aglianico Del Vulture DOC 2010

Beautiful black licorice and dark fruit nose. But aggressively young and tannic even after an hour in the vigorously swirled decanter. This will be spectacular in 10-15 years. — 8 years ago

Rosa del Rosa Coste della Sesia Nebbiolo Rosé 2016

Superb! Rose (imagine the e with the right accent) has not been my fav, but they are certainly becoming better. This is a very good one, especially for my fellow dry wine lovers. — 7 years ago

'L Franc Bandit Cabernet Franc

NV
Еще очень молодо. В носе зелёный перец, за которым прячутся ирисы и фиалки, виноградная шкурка, сырой табак, легкое заигрывание с горьким шоколадом. Во вкусе плотно спрессованы слива, сухая смородина, спелая садовая вишня, тутовник, крапива, намеки на графит. Тело плотное, крепко стянутое, с вибрирующей кислотностью и неспокойными танинами. Вертикальное, очень крепко сбитое вино с хорошей структурой, но все ещё слишком зеленое и агрессивное. Интересно.
