Arneis-like but at 13$ not. Erbaluce, the unpopular kid on the Piedmonte block, but the consumer gets the reward! Pale yellow w green tint, all kinds of waxy white & green fruits on nose, edamame?, and a palate of those fruits with a very thick ground of minerality. Kinda cuts through the middle between high acid & a broader mouthfeel. Could easily pair with all kinds of food- imagining everything from Indian curries to falafel based cuisine. — 2 years ago

So. Damn. (Elegantly). Crushable. Rangpur lime, a petrol-y olive oil, memories of a summer fruit pie, a sprinkle of tarragon, crisp mineral-y tang that fades into a beautiful calcium carbonate lime zest finish and a hit of aromatic joint…oh, wait… — 4 years ago

This has everything I love about Erbaluce. Great color and extraction, very golden and lightly honeyed. The herbal finish really lingers with fresh thyme and hints of fennel. Very vibrant and rich. — 5 years ago

Pop and pour, and this was excellent; wish I had bought a lot more. On the nose: soft honey, lemon lime, soft vanilla: transparent oak influence?, but nevertheless charming. On the palate: good acidity, wet stone, oily lime, nice finish. Disappearing quickly. — 6 years ago

First time trying Le Piane.. well not strictly true, we had a glass of their Erbaluce at the beginning of the evening. Both wines were fantastic. Was introduced by a beautiful restaurant in the mountains (Villa Pizzini). Delicious. Shall be sourcing once back in the UK. — 6 years ago

A bit of mineralality and salinity, complex but not overly barnyard. A true delight. — 7 years ago

Wow. What a great wine.

Nose is gorgeous white flowers.

Palate is so clean and mineral. Great thrust. Some linear richness. Great density.

Very good. — 4 years ago

This quite remarkable. Erbaluce is not a very noble variety, but this wine might have you think otherwise. Perfumed lemon oil, mint with a waxy or oily texture. Med to light bodied with a surprising persistence. This is like sunlight in the glass. — 5 years ago

This was a lovely red and very true to its origin in Piedmont though perhaps a bit more full bodied than you’d suspect from a mostly-Barbers wine. Delicious and held up well with a hearty pot roast. Had the 2017 vintage. — 6 years ago
