What a great gift from @Gianluct Torellix ! Sometimes I find Rinaldi’s (non Barolo) lesser wines too tannic in their youth. Not with this one, which is too drinkable already.

Beautiful #nebbiolo, better than most Barolo. Tasting this to see if I wanted to acquire more, and yes, yes I do! Its hard to put this in words but most Nebbiolo Langhe is either too light, too fruity or just too boring. Most young Barolo are too tight, sharp or closed up. This is a young Nebbiolo that drinks what you would expect an earlier accessible Barolo would taste like without being more accessible because of a warmer year or vinfication manipulation. #balance #langhe #perfection

A bigger tannic beast than 2014 langhe nebs but an intense signature Rinaldi bouquet forming which is what I love about these wines.

From the Ravera vineyard in Barolo. Rinaldis largest planting of nebbiolo. Graceful, elegant, powerful. And as always "Hauntingly aromatic." Really wish this was easier to find in the states. One of the greatest!

A delicious, straightforward Langhe Nebbiolo. Maybe not fair to taste this after all the superb 2013 Barolos I tasted today...

Beautiful magical langhe nebbiolo. Super expressive herbaceous nose right away nice cherry notes on palate then 45 mins into it some lethal tannins coming out full force 💪🏼 😍... 🤐

Another killer experience on this beautiful '07. One of my top wines of the vintage. Dark, yet fresh orchard fruit, cherry, licorice, tobacco, pine and exotic spice. Structured yet still juicy and layered on the palate..exciting. This is an '07 to buy, drink and put in the cellar.
