Vinous
The 2018 Piane, the estate's old-vine Croatina/Vespolina field blend, is a huge, inky wine. Blueberry, espresso, lavender, mint and dark spice all flesh out in a potent, layered Alto Piemonte red endowed with tremendous depth and sheer intensity. The 2018 is quite the powerhouse. It is also exquisitely beautiful and vivid from the very first taste. A wine that speaks with gravitas, the 2018 Piane is a must have for fans of the estate.
Notes
Le Piane’s Le Piane Croatina 2018 is a bold and distinctive expression of Croatina, showcasing depth, structure, and alpine elegance. The nose is intense and layered, revealing ripe black cherry, blueberry, and plum, intertwined with notes of violet, licorice, and earthy spice. The palate is rich yet fresh, offering juicy dark fruit, velvety tannins, and a vibrant mineral core, all balanced by lively acidity. A long, polished finish lingers with hints of balsamic, cedar, and black pepper.
