Cantalupo Anno Primo 2012

WineSaint
Dense and brooding, with earthy black fruit, dried herbs, and smoky mineral notes that reflect Ghemme's untamed character. The palate shows serious weight and grip, built on firm tannins that demand patience. This is old-school Northern Piedmont at its most uncompromising. Drink 2020-2028.
