The 2009 Groppello Castelline is a pretty, delicate red laced with attractive, perfumed berries, tobacco and subtle earthiness. Medium in body, the Castelline is an excellent choice for pairing with equally mid-weight foods, and is versatile enough to drink well during the warmer months if served with a slight chill. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2013. Importer: Empson, USA, Alexandria, VA; tel. (703) 684-0900

There’s a lot of excitement surrounding the little-know Groppello grape that is a native of northern Italy. The variety delivers freshness and fruity intensity: This expression is extremely clean, polished and food-friendly. ——M.L.(5/1/2011)—— 87
