We can talk about old vines, and then there's "230 year old vines planted on a steep hillside of rocky soils, consisting of gypsum, halite, calcareous sulfur, and other types of salt deposits from the Messinian period" kind of old vines. Giuseppe Cipolla? He's working with the latter, his family's property in Passofonduto sits about 25 kms from the south coast of central Sicily, a landscape of steep outcrops that was once a source of salt and sulfur. 'Le Robbe' comes from that very old parcel, with a bit of fruit from a younger parcel blended in for added freshness. The result is, simply put, stunning: wild strawberry, blood orange, and gooseberry jump off the palate, grounded by intensely concentrated minerality.
