Description
Sperss is sourced from Serralunga, and therefore hasreal power and structure. The 2010 Sperss has more finesse than is usually seen, it is more refined withlovely red fruit, smoke and graphite characters. This has a big future ahead of it, certainly a wine with 20 or 25 years of development.

Langhe
Langhe is an all-encompassing zone lying due south of Alba and the River Tanaro in the province of Cuneo. Barolo and Barbaresco both lie within its boundaries. Langhe is also the name of a regional DOC zone, which is used to classify wines made outside of the traditional Piemontese varietal scheme. Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc wines from the region are, for example, classified as Langhe DOC.
