From the splendid 10-hectare hillside estate situated in Lessona, near Biella in northern Piemonte, this exceptional 85% Nebbiolo, 15% Vespolina rosé represents the culmination of the De Marchi family's decades-long dream to revitalize the historic Sperino property.
Under the guidance of Paolo De Marchi (of renowned Chianti Classico estate Isole e Olena) and now crafted by his son Luca, the 'Rosa del Rosa' showcases a vibrant pink color and distinct aromas of white peaches and wild strawberries. This Nebbiolo rosé from Alto Piemonte vineyards achieves a perfect balance of heft and freshness, revealing complex layers of cranberry and orange peel complemented by a distinctive minerality that adds depth and savory character. Despite its sophisticated complexity that demonstrates the unique terroir of Lessona, the wine remains extremely approachable and easy to drink, beautifully expressing the noble Nebbiolo grape in a lighter style that offers both contemplative depth and immediate drinking pleasure.
