The 2010 Pipparello Riserva is deeply saturated with a garnet rim and opens with layered aromas of brambly black cherry, dried herbs, cedar box, and rich earth. On the palate it delivers substantial presence—firm, tightly knit tannins frame flavors of black plum, tobacco leaf, graphite and a whisper of licorice root. The acidity remains lively, lending energy to the mid‑palate, and the finish is long with mineral drive and savory undertones. Well‑structured now, it promises further refinement over the coming decade.

The Bea estate emphasizes minimal intervention—native yeasts, no filtration, and a deep respect for terroir—yielding wines of intensity, purity and ageworthiness. The family’s commitment builds on a foundation of tradition and authenticity, blending site‑specific expression with timeless technique.
