Proprieta’ Sperino is located in the vilage of Lessona, in the foothills of the northern Piedmont Alps. It was founded in the 19th century by Casimiro Sperino, an ophthalmologist and military doctor with a passion for winemaking. His son, Felice, took up the reins and contributed considerable research to the battle against phylloxera. The estate passed to the De Marchi family, who all but abandoned it until 1999, when Paolo De Marchi and his son Luca (of Isola e Olena in Chianti Classico) revived the castle and cellars. Their rosato is a blend of Nebbiolo and Vespolina; it is round and juicy but still crispy and refreshing.
