Teroldego 2022
As the last of the pruning was completed, the old man gathered the discarded canes in a pile at the far corner of the vineyard. Just a few months back they had sprouted from the trunks of his vines and carried the fruit in his small vineyard, now slowly fermenting into wine in his cold stone cellar. "Your work is not yet finished," he said, gathering an armload of them, smiling as he envisioned the crackling fire he would soon enjoy as they burned in his fireplace.

Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Showcasing the classic Teroldego aromas of violet and raspberry followed by flavors of ripe red plums. To add complexity and power, we blend in 13% Cabernet Sauvignon to give a lift of eucalyptus and punch of blackberry fruit and rich tannin.
Winemaker Notes
Teroldego is a wonderful grape that is native to the Piamonte region of northern Italy. However, unlike Barbera and Moscato it is seldom seeing outside of its home region. We were extremely lucky to secure the harvest of this rare grape from an extremely high-quality vineyard.
Food Pairing Notes
A delight with Pasta alla Gricia.
