Founded in the second half of the 1970s, La Kiuva (lah kee-OO-vah) is a cooperative winery with 50 grower members located in the heart of the Aosta Valley. The word kiuva is local dialect for a "sheaf of leaves" typically gathered in the fall to feed livestock. It's also a play on the Italian chi uva meaning literally "who grape".
This nebbiolo-forward field blend delivers a true sense of place; florality meets hints of pinecone, oregano, and rosemary on the nose, giving way to a juicy palate of wild strawberry. A tried and true crowd pleaser. (Nick's Mom's favorite)
