Garretti

2020 Barolo Nebbiolo

La Spinetta Garretti is a remarkable expression of Nebbiolo from the esteemed Barolo region, showcasing the grape's characteristic elegance and depth. With its alluring red hue, this vintage offers a medium body that gracefully balances richness and finesse. The wine's high acidity invigorates the palate, giving it a refreshing brightness while enhancing its complexity. Tannins are notable yet refined, providing structure without overpowering the delicate fruit notes. On the nose, it reveals enticing aromas of dark cherries, dried roses, and subtle spices, which carry through to a palate marked by a prominent fruit intensity. This wine is dry, allowing the intricate layers of flavor to shine, making it a superb companion for a variety of culinary delights. La Spinetta Garretti is a testament to the terroir of Barolo and the mastery of winemaking, destined to impress both casual drinkers and seasoned connoisseurs alike.

Italy

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
