The only one of Cuneazs wines not named for a local monster, Les Gosses derives from a French term for little children (monsters in their own right, to be sure!)of which Nadir has three. Coincidentally, this wine contains three local varieties: Vien de Nus (which comprises the majority), Petit Rouge, and the little-seen Vuillerminthe father of Fumin, in fact. In contrast to the two wines above, Les Gosses comes entirely from south-facing vineyards: Badeun in Chambave and Creta Platta (a newer acquisition for Nadir), both of which are more sun-blessed and lower on the slope than those sites which comprise Badebec. Made entirely in steel, this is a classic Valle dAoste lip-smacker, stuffed with juicy black cherries and crunchy plums. With electrifying acidity and a complexity-contributing edge of woodsmoke, this is perhaps the most delicious and complete wine Nadir has ever made; its too bad there are only 60 cases to go around!
