Nizza La Veja 2020

750ml

Sale price$72.00

Named to honor “the old lady” who sold the winery to the Frasca family, this wine is made from single-vineyard Barbera grapes picked from 90-year-old vines. The grapes undergo delicate pressing with some whole berries, aged in large oak casks for 6 months and another 18 months in bottle. A wine that’ll make you second-guess everything you thought you knew about Barbera, it showcases deep dark fruit and violet notes, incredible complexity, and balanced acidity. A fantastic gift, perfect with holiday fare, or enjoyed later in 7-10 years. The label depicts a great oak that’s being blown by the wind, but its roots are too deep for it to fear the weather.

Frasca

The Frasca family's love of Piemonte and its world-renowned wines was the inspiration to return to Italy with the desire to produce elegant, terroir-expressive wine in Nizza Monferrato. An introduction to winemaker Matteo Gerbi was the spark that turned this vision into reality. Born in Asti, Matteo’s vast experience in prestigious Langhe wineries helped forge a clear path, sharing the family’s journey from the very first steps. Today, Matteo leads a passionate team from the vineyards to the cellar, following the original inspiration with eyes to the future. The Frasca winery consists of 22 hectares of vineyards, embracing the municipalities of Nizza Monferrato, Agliano Terme and Moasca, where they have become celebrated for their beautiful expressions of Barbera, Freisa, Grignolino, Riesling and Arneis.
