Langhe Nebbiolo 2021

Delightful. Create a chicken parm with a twist and some steamed spinach. I needed to decant it and let it breathe for a while. During the aperitivo hora. — 9 days ago

Staforte Soave Classico Garganega 2021

A step above a basic Soave. White fruit, some florals, great minerality, a bit of salinity, nice texture on the long linear finish. Excellent refreshing acid too. Nice wine and a good value. — 4 months ago

Barolo Nebbiolo 2021

Livia Fontana – Fontanin – Nebbiolo 2021, Barolo DOCG – Piemonte, Italy 🇮🇹

Overview
100% Nebbiolo sourced from vineyards around Castiglione Falletto in the Barolo DOCG. A classic expression of Nebbiolo showing the grape’s aromatic intensity, bright acidity, and structural elegance typical of the Langhe hills.

Aromas & Flavors
Highly aromatic with lifted notes of rose petals and tart red fruits. Cherry, cranberry, and subtle earthy undertones emerge with aeration.

Mouthfeel
Medium to full-bodied with vibrant acidity and firm yet refined tannins. Elegant structure with a smooth and persistent finish.

Food Pairings
Braised meats, truffle dishes, mushroom risotto, lamb, aged cheeses.

Verdict
A beautifully aromatic Barolo that highlights Nebbiolo’s classic rose and red-fruit profile while remaining approachable and expressive.

Did You Know?
Nebbiolo is named after the Italian word nebbia (“fog”), referring to the autumn fog that blankets the Langhe hills during harvest season.

🍷 Personal Pick
Aromatic, elegant, and delicious, rose-driven Nebbiolo at its finest.
