A deep straw yellow in color, crisp and luscious on the palate, and with enough weight and grippy texture to stand up to something rich and meaty, while also fantastic on its own.
A lower-profile Italian grape (Pallegrello bianco) made with skin contact in a sherry-esque style similar to the output of France's Jura region. Crisply refreshing and brashly oxidative. Bust this one out with the appetizers and the seafood.
This iconic blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon is one of Italy's best Super Tuscans. Enjoy it for the dark cherry, plum, and minty herb flavours while it's young (with a strong decant) or watch it age gracefully in the cellar.
The Grumello wines from Arpepe come from limestone soils at high altitudes, making graceful Nebbiolo that brings high toned floral aromas with weightlessness on the palate.
The red robin, who graced this wine with its name and image, is a symbol of Lombardy. The wine gets two years in barrel and is a blend of wines from all three of Arpepe's vineyards.
From a vineyard planted at an altitude of 450m, this wine has a bouquet of cool, fresh-turned forest loam, with a warm minerality and herbaceousness on the palate.
The Rosso di Valtellina is Arpepe's introduction to the perfect Nebbiolo wines of the Alps. Made at the Northern end of Lombardy at high elevations, this is the wine that sees the lightest treatment of oak and lightest aging.
Named for the red granite of the vineyard its fruit is grown in, this particular riserva has all the complexity you could ask for in an Alpine Nebbiolo, with a distinct sanguine quality that sets it apart from Arpepe's other efforts. In 2018, Gambero Rosso’s Vini d’Italia awarded BEST ITALIAN RED WINE OF THE YEAR to the 2007 vintage of this wine. And 2016 is the best Valtellina vintage in well over thirty years.
