Langhe Nebbiolo DOC

A marriage of classic Nebbiolo structure, with a powerful build but a pleasant drinkability. Medium-plus body with spicy, rose petal aromas, deep red fruit, and a whisper of oak. The tannins are reined in, supporting supple fruit and a broad mouthfeel. It is typically and perfectly Nebbiolo but with a seriousness that surpasses its Langhe appellation. The quality of this wine borders on Barolo rather than a Langhe Rosso. A completely pleasurable Wednesday night Neb!
