Valle d'Aosta Petite Arvine 2025

Lyle Fass
9.0

Very aromatic and immediately expressive, with peach, apricot, green melon and cantaloupe giving the nose an almost fruit-cocktail character, while a mineral current starts to emerge underneath with air. The palate is juicy, sleek, pure and balanced, with plenty of ripe melon fruit, a lightly opulent 2025 texture and a persistent sizzling minerality through the finish. There is a faint medicinal note at first, but the wine grows more mineral after a few minutes. Light, refreshing and very drinkable, almost what I wish Pinot Grigio would be. — 3 days ago

Chateau Feuillet

Valle d'Aosta DOC Fumin 2016

My first fumin. Dark fruit, earth, spice, leather. For a wine that was 6 years old, it still had a remarkable Alpine freshness to it that I found to be very exciting. Will definitely try others! 90% Fumin, 10% Syrah. 8/14/22. — 4 years ago

La Kiuva

Rouge de Vallée Red Blend

New addition to the inventory. Delicious mountain red. Nebbiolo clone with additional local grapes. If you like Cru Beaujolais and/or Mondeuse this is a wine for you. Lots of red berry fruit, purple flower and wet granite. Light chill and delicious on a summer evening. — 5 years ago

Very nice, esp for $23. Well balanced, light body. Real complexity if you savor and swirl. But very easy drinking too. 13.5% al. I think Nebbiolo? Buy again. — 4 years ago

Valle d'Aosta Pinot Nero 2020

Delectable Wine
9.2

The 2020 Pinot Nero is such a pretty and finessed varietal expression that mixes alpine herbs with wild strawberries and crushed rocks. It’s elegant with silky textures that usher in masses of lavender-tinged black cherries and spices, as juicy acidity maintains fantastic balance. The 2020 leaves a coating of fruit concentration along with sweet tannins that add a gentle grip, promising a steady evolution. That said, there is no harm in drinking this today.
