Prieto Picudo
Filter
Prieto Picudo is a less common and unique red wine grape that is mainly grown in the Northern region of Leon in Spain. Prieto Picudo can be seen in blends with the Mencia grape. It can be compared to Tempranillo wines and is also a component in the production of Rose wines. The name “Prieto Picudo” is derived from the word “Prieto” which means “dark” in Spanish, and the word “Picudo” which means “pointed”. This is directly related to the small and compact bunches that are tapering at the bottom. The grape is sometimes referred to as a pine nut shape. Prieto Picudo produces a concentrated color and powerful aroma. It has moderate acid and tannin with mineral attributes and as well as notes of vanilla and toast. When produced as a Rose, it can give a fruity nose with notes of strawberry and raspberry. It can also give citrus tones like peach and sometimes flowers. It has excellent versatility in the bottle, with the capability to be consumed young, or allowed to age. Prieto Picudo pairs beautifully with seafood and pasta.

Gagliasso Barolo Riserva Oak Box is made from 100% Nebbiolo
Complex and intense aromas of red fruits intermixed with licorice, prune, leather, smoke and notes of toasty oak and vanilla. Full-bodied on the palate with loads of ripe dried and candied fruits, pepper and mocha.
After malolattic fermentation the wine stays for 10 months in French barrels, 10% new oak and 90% different years; after this period all barrels are blended ( 50% Torriglione and 50% Rocche dell’Annunziata) in old barrels for 48 months again. The wine is bottled and refined for 24 months.
There's a gritty, sandy quality to the tannins that would cut through roast pork stuffed with prunes.
The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc shows abundant aromas of Meyer lemon, passionfruit, and jasmine. In the mouth, the Semillon shows itself with a rich, deliciously textured palate with flavors of orange blossom, mandarin oranges, and a wet stone minerality
