Ar.Pe.Pe Dinner with Isabella ~ WINE DECODED x AL DENTE – Melbourne

Isabella Pelizzatti Perego from ArPePe in Valtellina, Lombardy, Italy is back in Australia! It's been far too long between visits. ArPePe's wines are things of beauty! Made from Chiavennasca AKA Nebbiolo they are very different from the wines of Barolo & Barbaresco. Perfumed ~ elegant ~ poised ~ balanced ~ complex. GRAPE FIRST You'll be transfixed from first pour. They sit in a state of pure grace! Extraordinary Wines x Extraordinary FoodArPePe x Al Dente 10 Wines + 4 Courses

Nebbiolo from Sassella, Valtellina

Ar.Pe.Pe Valtellina Superiore Sassella Stella Retica MAGNUM 2017

As with the 2015 I found myself not really wanting to write tasting notes simply wanting to devour the glass! Although it was line ball between the 2015 Inferno and Sassella I always lent toward the Sassella as a personal preference. ArPePe have delivered a cracker. Sassella typically produces the most elegant wines of the three communes with Inferno next and Grumello the boldest.The weight of the Sassella is on par with the Inferno this year. This has excellent shape on palate. A nice step
