LE22
Ready in 6 weeks
$205.00
$205.00
AVAILABLE JANUARY 2023 || PRE-ORDER BY NOVEMBER 12, 2022

A beautiful blend composed of the only three white wine grapes permitted to be grown in the Northern Rhone. It draws you in with inviting aromas of stone fruit, honeysuckle, and soft herbal notes. The palate is rich with expressive peach, apricot, and Meyer lemon flavours, just hinting at honeysuckle and brioche. This textured wine leans to the fuller side, but stays smooth and fresh with elegant balance.

Aglianico Barbera with Grape Skins – Campania, Italy
LE22
Ready in 8 weeks
$227.00
$227.00
AVAILABLE APRIL 2023 || PRE-ORDER BY NOVEMBER 12, 2022

Aglianico is considered one of the three greatest Italian varietals, known to produce refined, complex wines with firm tannin. Its richness and structure make it popular for blending. In contrast, Barbera is popular for producing fruity wines with low tannin and high acidity. The combination of these two Italian varietals creates a balanced blend with big personality. Dominant flavours of black cherry, pepper spice, blackberry and plum are enhanced with licorice, dried herbs, and a light mineral note. This is a wine to sit back, sip, and savour.
