The 2017 Langhe Nebbiolo is a real standout. More than anything else, the 2017 is exactly what a wine should be at this level: delicious and affordable. Sweet spice, crushed flowers, tobacco and dried cherry all develop in the glass. The 2017 is racy, effortless and undeniably beautiful. I won't be at all surprised if it develops very nicely with more time in bottle. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, March 2020)

Extremely approachable with dominate red fruits and violet florals. Less savoury than most and approachable structure.

Light and fruity but layered and Magical wine. Drank half one night then revisited the rest of the bottle one week later and was pleasantly surprised the wine was in perfect condition and opened up ! I would have dumped the bottle after all that time but somehow this wine is a survivor. 😍

Superlative tannin quality. I was leery of the current release being '11 but I like Burlottto. I have no idea what kind of alchemy allows a wine with 14.5% alc to feel this light. Great QPR and I'm going to tuck a couple of these away to see how they develop aroma.

The 2020 Langhe Nebbiolo is laced with crushed raspberry, mint, kirsch, orange peel and spice. Effusive and inviting, the 2020 Langhe Nebbiolo is a real gem. In 2020, Burlotto did not bottle their Barolo Acclivi. The best blocks were added to this blend.

Run don't walk to get your hands on this over performing Langhe. Should have bought 5cs for myself but stupid me was so pleased with it and told others about it and now it is all gone.

Portland has a really great food and wine culture. Thanks to Maggie (don't know yer delect handle) for great recommendations - like "Ox", where I had this gulpable Langhe wine (and an amazing meal). Oh, and go to xpatriot too!!!
