Rosanna Sandri Langhe Freisa 'Avolieri' 2023
Vintage Character
Rosanna Sandri Langhe Freisa 'Avolieri' 2023 comes from the Langhe DOC in Piedmont, an appellation where Freisa can show both the grape’s wild perfume and its firm, food-loving structure. In 2023, a warm growing season helped bring the variety to full ripeness while preserving the bright acidity that keeps Langhe reds energetic, making this a particularly expressive, high-value vintage for early enjoyment and short-term cellaring. The wine’s origins in Monforte d’Alba are important: this part of the Langhe is known for calcareous marl and hillside vineyards, conditions that lend Freisa its lifted floral tones, savory edge, and tensile backbone.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
Expect a vivid nose of wild raspberry, red cherry, pomegranate, rose petal, and violet, followed by hints of black pepper, anise, and crushed herbs. On the palate, it is dry and medium- to full-bodied, with high acidity and medium-high tannins framing a core of juicy red fruit and a subtly earthy, spicy undertone. The texture is energetic rather than heavy, and the finish carries a gently bitter, varietal snap that makes Freisa so compelling at the table. Pair it with tajarin with ragù, roast pork loin with herbs, or duck breast with cherries.
Winery Background
Rosanna Sandri is a small family estate in Monforte d’Alba devoted to traditional Langhe varieties and a transparent expression of place. Mauro Sandri oversees both vineyard and cellar work with a hands-on, low-intervention philosophy rooted in careful farming, balanced yields, and respect for local agricultural heritage. Fruit is harvested from a specific Avolieri parcel, and the winemaking aims to preserve Freisa’s natural perfume and structure rather than soften its character excessively with oak or extraction. That artisanal restraint, together with the estate’s very limited production, gives the wine a distinctive authenticity that will appeal to drinkers looking beyond the region’s most famous names.
