Wine Description:
Fabrizio Luli, the owner of Cantina Luli, grew up in Piemonte, in a restaurant family. For over 60 years, the Iuli family served award winning Piedmontese cuisine. However, it was the locals asking for a house wine that got Fabrizio interested in winemaking. Fabrizio Luli likes to make his wines in the Piedmontese tradition, using cement and oak. Based on the characteristic white earth and the minerality of the soils he aims to make subtle wines. Wines that are elegant, fresh, crisp, vibrant and easy to drink. The Luli Umberta is his entry level wine. The wine has a bright ruby red colour. The nose has scents of red fruits and violets. The palate is fresh, smooth and juicy with lively tannins.
Pros:
  • Well-structured and balanced on the palate

Cons:

Wine Expert Note:

Iuli Umberta is a delightful Italian wine that showcases the unique characteristics of the Piedmont region. On the nose, Iuli Umberta offers a bouquet of red fruits, such as cherries and raspberries, accompanied by subtle floral notes. These aromas are complemented by hints of spice and earthiness, adding complexity to the overall profile. The palate of Iuli Umberta is equally impressive. It displays a harmonious balance between fruitiness and acidity, with vibrant flavors of red berries and plums. The wine's medium body and smooth tannins contribute to its elegant structure.
