Arpepe Valtellina Superiore Sassella Riserva Nuova Regina 2016 Gamay Not quite wine

Not quite wine

this is a true orange wine

This is a perfect wine for a fresh Margarita Pizza

growers grafted it over to more reliable grapes until for a time Nascetta flirted with extinction

It is the only sherry made both organically and naturally

Arpepe Valtellina Superiore Sassella Riserva Nuova Regina 2016 Gamay Not quite wine"Intense floral nose of red and dark fruit, with a slightly peppery, almost meaty character. There is a lot of stony minerality. Tight knit structure with fruit and acidity that are crisp and zesty, ripe tannins, a velvety texture and a medium body. Good cherry fruit finish. Drinkable now, but best from 2026." 95 Points James Suckling
