2021 Cantina Delsignore 'la Crotta' Spanna (PRE-ARRIVAL OLY)

Pre-arrival price only, wine will be $58 when landed in May.

100% Nebbiolo from the magnificent 2021 growing season. Super fine tannins & a laser sharp focus to this release. Cherry, tart cranberry - juicy red fruits.  Subtle graphite and white pepper on the nose with some lavender & potpourri too.  A terrific release under the beautiful new label from Delisgnore.

94 Points, Gary Walsh (TWF) - "Red fruits, a steel-like top note, liquorice root, white pepper, mountain herbs, orange peel, dried flowers – such perfume, and ‘of a place’ character here. It’s brightly lit, succulent, red cherry and again that dusty white pepper tannin grip, cranberry crunch, with a lively finish of excellent length, offering a cinch of orange peel and raw almond. It’s a very specific sort of wine, but gee, it seems like a very good vintage for this producer. Strawberry, pepper, perfume, brightness, is the summary."
