We have two new, freshly arrived wines to unveil from the Nofrini family, in collaboration with our old friend, Danilo Marcucci. You’ve all gotten to know their electrifying “Nucleo” liters over the 5 years or so, and now they’ve hit us with a couple of outstanding wines in the classic 750ml format. Keep in mind that these vineyards are both the highest elevation around Lake Trasimeno, and they’re also some of the oldest, expressing the rich calcium and clay alluvial soils. These are skillfully made wines produced by humble, hardworking Umbrian farmers that strive to offer consistently delicious wines that everyone can drink.
These wines are a little more serious than the liters. They have some more extraction and density, but are still elegantly expressive of the lake’s salty terroir. The value here is tremendous.
Dinamo Orange 2022 - Malvasia and Trebbiano from an old vineyard of (at least!) 90 year old vines. 3 months skin maceration, and aging in stainless steel and fiberglass tanks.
Dinamo Rosso 2022 - Gamay del Trasimeno and Sangiovese with 20 days skin maceration. Aging in fiberglass tanks.
