2017 vintage notes:

Scarpa "La Selva di Moirano" Monferrato Freisa Secco 2009 russian river valley Dolcetto d'Alba DOC | MonforteRustic, dry version of the native grape of Italy, Freisa. Freisa is notoriously hard to cultivate and over time farmers shifted and focused on grapes that are less risky to grow. There is very few Freisa wines that make it to the US, but since we love it around here, we have some! This very rustic, a true expression of the land and from the legendary house of Scarpa. Monferrato, Piedmont, Italy
