The Sfera project is committed to bottling wines from fabulous organic producers in Italy and selling them at value pricing here in the states. This current iteration of their Rosso is made in collaboration with Lombardian producer Frecciarossa, and is a blend of Uva Rara (30%), Barbera (30%), Croatina (10%), Pinot Nero (15%) and Riesling Renano (15%), and is possibly the most perfect example of glou-glou meets true Northern Italian terroir/varietal typicity that we've encountered. It's light, bright, juicy and irresistibly delicious, yes, but without allowing all that legendary Lombardian earthy/herbaceous character to be obscured. All Summer long, baby!
