Dacapo

2022 TRE (Merlot 40% - Barbera 30% - Nebbiolo 30%)

There's something wonderfully unpretentious about this wine. It doesn't rely on power, oak, or concentration to make its point. Instead, it leans into pure drinkability and charm, offering a bright, generous expression of fruit wrapped in spice and savoury notes. The aromas move between ripe berries, dark plum, and a touch of dried herbs, while the palate stays supple, fresh, and beautifully easygoing.
