Arpepe Valtellina Superiore Sassella Riserva Nuova Regina 2016 riesling A curious blend of grapes"Intense floral nose of red and dark fruit, with a slightly peppery, almost meaty character. There is a lot of stony minerality. Tight knit structure with fruit and acidity that are crisp and zesty, ripe tannins, a velvety texture and a medium body. Good cherry fruit finish. Drinkable now, but best from 2026." 95 Points James Suckling
