The house go-to Nebbiolo (thanks for the intro our friends at Colonie, Brooklyn). Bright cherry fruit, earthy, with tobacco notes. Sublime.

The 2015 Spanna is another gorgeous value-priced wine in this range. Bright floral notes and sweet red berry fruit give the 2015 freshness and airiness to match its restrained light-bodied personality. Gracious and ethereal, Vallana's Spanna is a great introduction to the Vallana wines. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, April 2020)

This 2015 Spanna was a delight, showing a decidedly softer and more fruit-driven personality- delicate floral layers and a bit of licorice and fennel to be found here as well. I'm having fun reading reviews of very old vintages, and this is certainly one I will revisit. Available for as little as $18, this is a wonderful value play.
