Vallana just killed it with this bottling! Tart red fruit, liquid rocks, Alpine herb and mineral. For me, one of the best $30 bottles out there!

Very tight with a tar, herbal and black and Bing cherry - quite good.

Great example of what a Spanna from Alto Piemonte can be. Volcanic soil, traditional process and a great family. Red berries orange peel mint plenty of acid and low alcohol lightens the package. The bottle went empty quickly.

Still young, and has the tannins to shown for it, but sooo good. Aromatic, floral, a bit of leather. Definitely drinkable right now, but I will be trying this again, possibly in a few years to see how it changes.
