2013 Uvaggio, Proprietà Sperino

2013 Uvaggio, Proprietà Sperino

Made from a blend of Spanna (Nebbiolo), Vespolina and Croatina, this is beautiful. Elegant on the nose with flowers and fresh red fruit, on the palate there’s silky tannins and hints of blood and rust. This is so fresh, and so complex. A steal at this price.

Tasting notes

This wine is named Uvaggio in reference to the fact it represents a blend of three grapes: 80% Nebbiolo, 15% Vespolina and 5% Croatina. Some of the fruit for the 2013 Coste della Sesia Uvaggio is harvested from parcels with sandy soils that give the wine more perfumed characteristics and other fruit is harvested from granite-rich soils that give the wine more structure and fiber. This is a deep and authentic red wine with balanced red fruit aromas that saturate a long and silky mouthfeel. Savory tones of spice and leather give the wine staying power. In all, the 2013 vintage is delicate and nuanced in nature.
