Ottin Torrette Superieur Valle d'Aosta Petit Rouge 2015

$24

GUARANTEED BEST PROVENANCE: IMPORTED BY AIR FROM ITALY AND STOCKED IN CALIFORNIA Elio Ottin gets top awards year-after-year for his 4 flagship wines (this Torrette Superieur red wine and his Pinot Noir, Fumin, and Petite Arvine). I was lucky to be able to get his wines, direct from his cantina, upon release after tasting them just last summer. Elio calls this wine "heroic and surly," and for good reason. This blend of 3 indigenous grapes from the Val d'Aosta (Petit Rouge, Fumin, and Cornalin) is intense and exciting, with ripe blackberries, cherries and strawberries on the nose and palate. There's an earthiness and lightly herbal texture on the medium finish that is truly divine. If you'd like to read more about this extraordinary red wine from the Val d'Aosta, check this out. Bottle Size: 750ml Alcohol: 13%

Very floral - violets and red roses with a hint of dried porcini too. Very ripe. Good with pork sausage and mushrooms pan seared in Madeira
