Think of this as an Italian version ofandnbsp;cruandnbsp;Beaujolais. This wine comes from Valleandnbsp;dand#39;Aoste, Italy high up in the Italian alps looking up at Mont Blanc. These are among the highest altitude vineyards in all of Europe. The wine is made mainly from a grape called Petit Rouge, with a little Pinot Noir and Gamay and another grape calledandnbsp;Gamaretandnbsp;thrown in for good measure. Petite Rouge is a native variety from this area. Itand#39;s spicy, ethereal, and intoxicatingly aromatic. The wine inside the bottle always comes first, but this also boasts one of the coolest labels in the shop!
