Did a tasting at Rochioli a few weeks ago. This was recommended. Never had a Valdiquié before. Think I should have held it longer to give it time to balance out.

Quite a tasty wine. Sour cherry, spice and flowers. Fresh acidity gives the wine a nice lift. Finishes with a blast of pixie stick flavor. #rochioli #valdiguie

Last year for this production. Vines are being grafted over for pinot... Nice musky nose, grippy and bright.. Would love to try this again down the road...

I'm fond of this varietal. Great acidity, the fruit was a TOUCH too ripe and went into the prune/stewed fruit profile. Nice mouthfeel and good balance.

Very “grapey” color like fresh Beaujolais. Fruit is ripe and floral; much as described by Rochioli.
