Wind Gap Wines
Luna Matta & Glen Rose Vineyards Nebbiolo
My last bottle from the defunct yet memorable winery.
Smells so delicious, like a fruit yogurt
This drinks like it is fresh, with blackberry bramble, subtle and unique red fruits tucked behind the leather ones.
Tannins are still very gripping, and the acidity tames it back. A touch of heat and its off to the races!

Brick color. Nose is super ripe red berries. In the glass this wine has loads of sweet red fruit paired with bright acidity, even at 11 years old.

Mar 24th, 2019Beautiful wine. Purchased on @garagiste Brick red color, intense nose of candied raspberry fruit leathers, black peppercorn. In the glass, intense dried red fruits, tangy raspberries. Huge acidity - you feel it in your teeth. Sour candy finish. Can’t believe I only paid $9 for this bottle at 11 yrs old. Huge steal

I've been holding this for a long time but I finally decided to pull it out and blind it with some other nebbiolos... and it held up pretty nicely for being 10 years old! Lots of earthy red fruit, the alcohol is starting to show slightly. Dried flowers on the nose. #windgap #nebbiolo

Aug 16th, 2015This blend of Nebbiolo and Dolcetto works out fantastic. Delicious with great energy.

May 16th, 2015Although Wind Gap are based in Sebastopol, this impressive Nebbiolo comes from Paso Robles. Very fruity on the nose (lots of wild strawberries), with big drying tannins on the palate. Delicious.
