La Spinona Bricco Faset 2017 is a dry, medium-bodied, fragrant and elegant Barbaresco made from 100% Nebbiolo. The wine is bright, fresh and delicious with ripe wild berries, earthy violets, ripe cherry, dried wild herbs, mint, anise and baking spice flavours vibrant on the palate. Pour with lentil or meaty stews.

Barbaresco food pairings: rare roast beef, lamb, mushroom and wild leek risotto.

Reviews and Ratings

La Spinona Bricco Faset 2017 is a dry, medium-bodied, fragrant and elegant Barbaresco made from 100% Nebbiolo. Intense with aromas of wild dark and red berries, cherry, earthy violets, anise and baking spice flavours bright on the palate, tannins are polished and velvety on this juicy red from the Piedmont wine region. Enjoy it through 2029. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
