1630 bottles produced Old school natural wine Niccolaini was the avant-garde of the movement without ever being in it himself. I got told stories of a farm with no electricity perhaps a decade ago or so Massa Vecchia is appreciated for all its labels and you can find out which one is your favourite Personally i am not a rose drinker, but i knew i wasn't going to be disappointed here This is more like a Valentini cerasuolo d'Abruzzo, but even more extract, i dare to say if you sell this wine for a red nobody would argue. It's funky to start, it gives you cola and china and its fresh and fun, plus very long and mineral. Quite earthy perhaps not a precise fruit to define, but real good altogether For my understanding this is the last vintage made by Niccolaini' daughter in law as a winemaker and i keep a bottle of the next vintage..i am very curious to how he has come back to his captain seat. — 3 years ago
@Ira Schwartz perhaps Ariento top It changed my point of view on the vermentino grape and the natural white wine altogether, but that was a while ago, I'd say if i recall well the 2007 version. I was told(i haven't tasted😔) that the last few vintages made by Francesca Sfondrini were a little oakier, but i trust Niccolaini being back to adjust that.
A powerful wine but the tannins have completely integrated themselves and the mouthfeel is soft and elegant. Tertiary notes are starting to show but it still has a good amount of acidity to balance out the ripe fruit. Wow! — 6 years ago
