San Fereolo Langhe Rosato La Lupa 2023 SHELF wines this lean and lifted

wines this lean and lifted were once dismissed

and a hint of tarragon

it sits between a liqueur and an aperitivo

sweet licorice

more perfumed half of the old Pichon estate

San Fereolo Langhe Rosato La Lupa 2023 SHELF wines this lean and liftedA rose with the soul of San Fereolo's serious reds. Nicoletta Bocca farms her Dogliani estate biodynamically (Demeter certified) just south of Barolo, and La Lupa, the she wolf, is her Langhe rosato made from the same old vine Dolcetto that goes into her flagship reds. Bottled as a Langhe Rosato, it is dry, structured, and food driven rather than a poolside sipper, all character and energy. A distinctive pink for people who normally skip rose.
