Ioppa Santa Fé Ghemme 2019

Rich and rich wine with a deep, mellow texture. The hints of black cherries and other bold fruits are expertly balanced, with a light touch of spice that adds substance and nuance. A perfect pairing for a variety of dishes, consisting of duck breast and a opulent mushroom risotto.

Fine Italian wine from a renowned winemaker, boasting a luscious and complex flavor profile, with tones of wood and fruit, aged for 4 years in oak barrels and 2 years in bottle.

Masterclass from the venerable Nebbiolo, highlighting the best of the quartet's 50-year-old vines on clay soil. The flavor is highlighted by rich, savory accents of leather, tobacco, and allspice, supported by a understated earthy undertone. The liquorice and iron-like ferrous bloodiness add depth, even as the meaty red fruit of raspberry, cherry, and loganberry provide a contenting texture. A touch of iodine adds nuance, and the brightness is both vibrant and refreshing. The finish is long and satisfying, with a lingering quality that leaves the sensation feeling accomplished.
