After stints in Australia as a winemaker with respected estates such as O’Leary Walker and Sticks he landed a job with Treasury helping to grade vineyards across their huge portfolio of sites, a role David emphasised help him truly grasp the value of site selection and vine age. In 2007 he flew to Piedmonte and worked his first vintage with Cerrato, one of the regions iconic Nebbiolo producers and simply fell in love with the region and the wines they make. Fast forward to today and he now lives full time in Barbaresco, making his own wines under the Fletcher label to critic acclaim. A nod to David Fletcher’s Scottish family heritage as former arrow makers, Recta Pete translates to ‘shoot straight’. This is a blend of two different, Cru-classified vineyard sites – 60% from Roncaglie Cru and 40% from Starderi. A tiny production in total. It’s raised in old oak for two years (a year more than legally required). This is tarry, grungy Nebbiolo with lightish tannins for the variety but plenty of dark fruit, tobacco and spice characters. A wine to be sucked into. The Finer Details Style – Red Wine Varietal – Nebbiolo Country – Italy Region – Piedmont Vintage – 2018 Bottle Size – 750ml ABV – 14%
