Description
With a winery located in the steep hills of Mango in Gramella, the Tintero family has been tending grapevines in the appellations of Moscato d’Asti and Langhe for four generations. The estate is run by third-generation Marco and his partner, Cinzia. Cantine Tintero really began to establish itself after WW2, when brothers Giovanni and Carlo began selling Moscato grapes to local drinks giants, Cinzano and Martini (while making their own wines for local consumption).
The colour is quite pale which is quite typical for Nebbiolo. The enticing aromas have touches of earth, stone and cherry, verging towards a Pinot Noir style, with hints of rose and strawberry but distinctly Italian. Lovely fresh fruit, floral hints with fine spices and good grip on the finish. Not necessarily flashy, but provides excellent drinking and precise varietal characteristics.

Cabernet Franc
The Verum Cabernet Franc Seleccion, Bodegas Rio Del Elorza has classic elements on the nose including wild strawberry, blackberry, pencil shavings and a hint of blackcurrant leaf. Lovely ripe fruits with a hint of stalky/vegetal character but not too much greenness, instead offering more body and depth of fruit and a slight touch of herbal mint. The full-bodied palate is elegant with firm tannins but a vital balancing acidity. Cedar notes show from the use of French oak and the finish is dominated by bright red fruit and mocha spice.
