Bastianich Vespa Rosso 2005
 |
|
BN#246521 |
Vespa Rosso is uncommonly fruit-forward and structured for a “cold weather” red wine, and yet it retains many of the spicy, earthy notes that characterize Friulian reds. The extra effort made in both the vineyard (sharply reducing yields) and the cellar (small batch fermentation in tonneaux) helps elevate Vespa Rosso beyond the ranks of everyday reds.
Wine Spectator
Offers loads of peach and mango on the nose, following through to a full body, showing notes of pear drops, with a dense mouthfeel and a long, lively finish. Complex and delicious. Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Picolit. Drink now. 1,300 cases made.
Score: 90.
