Tasting Notes

The bouquet is very intense, full, dynamic, with typical oxidized hints opening to notes of jam, caramelized cedar and spices. The taste is charming, elegantly astringent and persistent, very similar to the bouquet.

About the Winery

La Stoppa is an historic estate in the province of Piacenza in the Emilia region of Italy. There are 32 hectares of vines, along with almost as much forest, plus the ruins of a medieval tower. The property was founded and planted first in the late 19th century by a lawyer named Giancarlo Ageno, whose main interest was Bordeaux varieties.
