Uco Valley

Full

The second Outstanding wine at this tasting from Gerardo Michelini and Andrea Muffato; this is a new addition to their range, and is also from Gualtallary. As with all their wines, the emphasis is on freshness and purity of fruit. In the cellar, the pair prefer to use indigenous yeasts for fermentation, often adding a proportion of whole clusters, and the wines are vinified using concrete eggs and previously used barriques. 

Phil Crozier: Rich, floral aromas open out onto a palate of great structure and concentration, with dense, dark fruit. A great expression of Gualtallary.

Paz Levinson: Intense, fruit-driven nose of plums and cherries is mirrored on the palate – a medium-bodied, fine-grained, refreshing and seemingly light style, but at the same time it feels serious.

Patricio Tapia: So brilliant and brimming with fruit, this is so seductive in its flavours of dark cherry and strawberry.
