"The 2005 Lessona Omaggio a Quintino Sella brings together all of the best qualities of the region. It shows more than enough fruit to balance its structural components while retaining fabulous energy, not to mention balance. Sweet red cherries, flowers, mint and spices are some of the notes that inform the round, engaging finish."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
In Italy's northwest, Piedmont is home to Nebbiolo, the grape behind the powerful, perfumed and long-lived reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Fog-shrouded hills and calcareous soils define its greatest wines.
Produces pale but powerfully tannic and perfumed reds with tar, rose and cherry notes. The grape behind Barolo and Barbaresco, it is among the most age-worthy in the world.
