Valdinievole DOC
Come si dice? Tap the speaker next to a name to hear it in Italian. AI voice.
No strip issued. I'm still hunting a bottle.
The valley between Lucca and Pistoia, better known for flowers and spa towns than for wine; the DOC started as a Trebbiano white and was widened in 2011 to include reds and rosato. The whites are light, lemony and almondy; the Sangiovese reds are simple, tart and cherry-scented. Vin Santo is the traditional product and the one locals value. A few family farms bottle it and none of it is exported.
Still hunting
I'm still looking for a bottle of this.
If you make Valdinievole, import it, or know who does, the form takes two minutes and I reply to every one.
Can you help me get one?Bottles I'm chasing
