Forteto della Luja Le Grive
Red Barbera, Pinot Nero Monferrato, Italy
Where it comes from: sheet translated by the house, not yet checked one by one.
Quick answers
Is Forteto della Luja Le Grive any good?
Drinkers rated it 4.3 out of 5, in 178 reviews: among the top 25%, on a scale where the overall average is 3.9. Still few reviews, so the rating may change. Not a critic's score, and nobody paid for it.
What does this rating mean?
It's the average from people who drank it and rated it, from 1 to 5. Almost every wine lands between 3 and 4.5 (the overall average is 3.9), so the number alone is misleading: we also say where it stands compared with the others. It isn't a critic's score, and nobody paid for it.
How much does Forteto della Luja Le Grive cost?
The house only publishes a price after checking it in a big Brazilian store, and this label from the world collection has not been checked yet. Finds with the price checked on the day are in the Garimpo.

This page comes from the public X-Wines database or from what the house read on the producer's website.

No producer pays to get in, to move up or to leave, and the sheet you send takes precedence over any other source.
