Deltetto

"There's no stopping Tonino Deltetto. For years, his profile has been one of the most exciting to write . New cellar areas, labels and organizational changes mean that there is always something to add to our previous report in the guide. If we had to sum up Tonino's passion in winemaking in a word, that word would be "bubbles". The fine quality and commercial success of the Extra Brut Riserva have encouraged Tonino to persevere with the wine... Skillful handling of whites is also evident in the still wines. Every version of Arneis is a winner. But Deltetto can also make serious reds. Barbera Rocca delle Maresche 2004, from fruit harvested slightly later than usual, shot through the finals where its monumental nose and magisterial combination of acidity, fruit and alcohol stunned the judges. Three glasses was the verdict..."  - Gambero Rosso Italian Wines 2007
