The Story
"La Lupa is a seriously made rose which eschews the dominant "light at all costs" paradigm and possesses the vinosity and depth of real wine. Produced from a saignee of Dolcetto (with a small amount of Gewurztraminer), it pours a deep, glowing, orange-y pink; the nose is spice-drenched and soaring, but with plump fruit lurking; and the palate shows a touch of structure with ample richness and a current of energy that pulses through all her wines." -- RWM
