Langhe Nebbiolo
Medium Ruby with notes of red fruits and floral scents. On the palate red fruits with notes of blueberry, cherry and earthy dried lavender. Good balance, soft fine tannins, medium finish ending with fruit and earthy character. Nice value. Aged well.

Jul 30th, 2019I love this wine. I cannot stop myself from pouring another glass. I grudgingly share a taste with my husband because what I really want is to enjoy the entire bottle sola. This wine has everything I want right now: a cheery holiday warmth; a subtle background of spice; and a perfect balance between acid, fruit, and tannin. Why yes, please. I would like another!

1 person found it helpfulJul 31st, 2018Great drinkable Nebbiolo from a brilliant winemaker. Red fruit, dried violets, blueberry, cassis, and forest floor combine into an elegant wine. Not as concentrated as Vajra’s Barolo but more drinkable early. 2016 vintage on Nov 12, 2018

Jan 15th, 2019This fairly pale ruby, tart red fruit little number struts some raspberry and cherry charm. Next it unfolds with fresh earth, tobacco and a bit of smoky cardamom spice. Fine-grained yet lightly tactile tannins, medium acidity, and barely medium body. After 10 mins, fresh rose and geranium. Well balanced, drinkable, good quality with a tart fruit, drying tannic finish.

Aug 21st, 2018Medium intensity aromas of raspberry and cherry, fresh earth and tobacco, hint of smoke, cardamom. After 10 mins fresh rose and géranium show up. A palate of red fruit mixed with smokey tobacco and earth. Lighter on the acid and body, fine tannins that linger. Balanced and drinkable, fairly complex but lacking on finish.
