Description
From a region known mostly for it's mighty (and wickedly expensive) Nebbiolo grape which makes the famous wines of Barolo & Barbaresco, the white wines of Piedmont made from the Cortese grape can sometimes cruise below the radar. Fine by us! La Colombera is a female-helmed organic producer in the Colli Tortonesi region of Piedmont famed for her white wines. Though it has a pleasing, fractional amount of weight on the palate (from some time on lees), and has a tad of nuttiness to its mostly stone fruit aromas? This wine is mostly about Aperitivo Hour: all citrus zest and freshness.
