From the importer
Why we buy this one.
Century-old alberello bush vines, each one pruned into a low goblet against the wind. Fermented in stainless steel, aged in large neutral Slavonian botte — no new oak anywhere. Honest, specific, and priced like the family still owns the land. Because they do.

Not a shy wine — give it twenty minutes in a decanter and it opens right up.

Perfect with Sunday dinner
Paired it with a slow-cooked ragù and it was close to perfect. Will be reordering by the case.
