In 1997, Corrado Fassa & his wife Cecilia founded Valley Roncati to revived the ancient grape-growing tradition of the Fassa family. Joined by their sons, they now have 9 hectares of vines across Alto Piemonte.
Grapes grow in the Novara hills at the foot of Monte Rosa in Piedmont, where the glacial soils are rich in clay, sand, & hundreds of minerals. Fermented in steel then decanted into French oak barrels for 30 months.
Opens with aromas of licorice, red fruit, & peppery spice. Velvety, complex fruit of red cherry, raspberry, blueberry, rosehips, & prune that moves to savory tobacco, earth, leather, smoke, balsamic, & white pepper. Fresh & deeply mineral, it closes with soft, velvety tannins.
70% Nebbiolo, 20% Vespolina, 10% Uva Rara. Sustainable.
