Villa Guelpa, Sizzano 2016 Rhone Blanc rich dark-cherry finish

rich dark-cherry finish

one may ask why I waited until now to release a wine made over ten years ago

under the direction of Jeanne de Chantal (nun and founder of the Order of the Visitation)

and the wine has held up exceedingly well

Very nice nose but somewhat tannic on opening

Villa Guelpa, Sizzano 2016 Rhone Blanc rich dark-cherry finish70% Nebbiolo and 30% Vespolina that is the classic DOC blend. A blend of Nebbiolo and Vespolina, this vibrant red opens with enticing scents of woodland berry, wild herbs and spice. On the radiant, elegant palate, fresh acidity accompanies wild red berries, white pepper and saline alongside polished tannins. Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast
