Punta Crena 2022 Rossese 'Vingeta Isasco' (Liguria, Italy)

We were enchanted by this unique, alpine-style, Northern Italian red wine from Liguria. Made from the obscure grape Rossese, which thrives in the red clay soils of Varigotti (Liguria). This grape has a knack for communicating its terroir to its drinkers - meaning, it is a wine with a strong sense of place. Light in body and fresh, it is reminiscent of wild Ligurian brush and saline rich coastal breezes. Crunchy red fruit flavor, hints of dried herbs and minerality.
