Lessona Piedmont Nebbiolo Blend

Remarkably youthful for a 16 year old. Leather, cracked stone, spice still-bright cherry. How is that possible? Light but deep. Fantastic transparency and acids.

Aug 23rd, 2026Gorgeously soft and fragrant lighter styled Alpine Nebbiolo. Nose has just ripe cherry, Alpine flowers and herbs, and a beautiful high-toned spice element. The palate is super-soft, with loads of gravelly minerality, very transparent cherry fruit, and is soft but lean. Nice acidity and just a teeny bit of peppery heat at the end (which actually worked well with the rich Friulian pasta we had with it.
