James Suckling
Fascinating aromas of dried red chili, strawberry, red berry and cedar follow through to a full body, firm and silky tannins and a long and flavorful finish. Reserved. Better in 2019.

Wine & Spirits
Vigna del Gris is a southeastern-facing plot in Monforte d’Alba’s Ginestra cru, with a high proportion of sand in its soils, yielding a wine with floral scents and concentrated red berry flavors. It shows notes of caramel and plenty of oak tannins picked up during two years in French oak barriques, but the fruit flavors are lively and fresh, lifted by notes of menthol and an orange zest acidity. Hold this for a few years to diminish the oak influences and allow the rosy red flavors to sing.
