Neive Langhe Nebbiolo
Langhe, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
Thursday - back to wine drinking! Take that work week. With a spritz if the Coravin, half a decanted bottle, here I come.
Smells of stress from a week of clients with their networks, and crushed dried berry blend baking between some river stone.
The initial wave of relief that flows over me, is relaxing and introspective. It also tastes like unripened fruit, rock struggled vine, persimmon and black cherry.
Like the emotions I have collected, the bitter tannins have tannins of their own. Good thing I like tannins, both in wines and in clients.
Thursday nights Nebbiolo

The delightful thing about/problem with a good food/wine book is you get inspired to open all sorts of things but...I’m gonna say this wine was a good choice to go with A Really Big Lunch. Not a problem. This wine will keep growing in delight and holy heck I can’t wait to try Ca’ Rozzeria’s Barolo proper I bought but I will be waiting another few years on that if I can help myself. But for twelve bucks I couldn’t help but order a couple of the Langhe Nebbiolo offerings. And this is a 2015 so it’s super ripe.
Okay so the dried cherry just explodes from the glass with earth and minerally deliciousness and on the tongue the tannins assure you this is in fact Nebbiolo. There is a lot of orange rind going on too. The finish goes on with all sorts of dried flower and yet almost a salinity? Crazy. I’m in. But then I’m a nut for Nebbiolo. Okay one more chapter then I swear I will turn the light out. At least it’s not a school night.

Alcohol doesn’t seem too strong, but quite tannic. A bit too much tannins for me, but good dark fruits too.

Light to medium body cherry flavors. Great value and weekday wine.
