100% Nebbiolo that is fresh and vibrant with fresh cut wild flowers and violets, the calling card rose petals and sour cherries. Texturally elegant tannins allow you to access the wine sooner, as it is intended to enjoying the youthful aspect of Nebbiolo. Using traditional winemaking methods – the grapes are harvested manually even though the vines cling to a rocky slope – Ar Pe Pe has achieved a wine of subtle complexity that speaks to its Alpine roots. Unlike the more famous Nebbiolo appellations of Barolo or Barbaresco, this wine is ready for tonights table and would appeal to lovers of Burgundian Pinot. Any edgy tang dissipates with a slight chill and decant, leaving the wine with a gorgeous line of acidity. I need little prodding to crack open this bottle, but for the sake of pairing, it marries beautifully with creamy pasta, gooey cheese, or white meats.
