2010 AR.PE.PE. Rosso di Valtellina

Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Saturday, March 2, 2019 - According to CT, my last bottle. As always, lightly colored, reminiscent of a Nerello Mascalese-based wine.

Menthol with red & black fruits on the nose. Light-bodied on the palate, with good acidity and decent persistence. Still drinking well, although this has never struck me as a wine to lay down for 15-20 years.

Comes across as the younger wine on the palate - if I could combine the nose from the 2012 with the palate from this wine, it would be the complete package. Fun trying these side by side today, if only to explore a little vintage variation.
