Negro Giuseppe Italian Red
Piedmont reds from Negro Giuseppe, stocked in Commack.
The story behind Negro Giuseppe
Negro Giuseppe is a Piedmont producer, and Piedmont is the northwest Italian region behind some of the country's most respected reds. Dolcetto gives a dry, softly tannic red with dark cherry and almond notes, made to drink young and easy. Barbaresco comes from Nebbiolo, a grape that brings pale color but firm tannin, rose, tar and red fruit, and rewards a little air in the glass.
We keep this label in our Italian red section in Commack and stock it in small quantities, one or two bottles at a time.
