Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato

Nice to see this wine back. A couple of intervening vintages since 2009 have been over extracted and hit with oak. This 2012 is back to neutral (or nearly so) allowing the compelling anise, beef jerky savoriness to come forward. Weird and delicious.

Almost too floral

Great Sunday afternoon delight

Lilac geranium but in a truly floral way

Aromatic and hoppy

Deep rich fruit with lush, velvety mouth feel

Very light, floral, unique

If you want a Piedmont Nebbiolo to drink today, grab this for a bargain.

Great with pasta and meatsauce
