Tasting Notes
This opens with a really fresh and pretty Nebbiolo nose of sour red cherries, raspberry, roses with a little tar hiding in the background. More air pushes the fruit and flowers to the side while the tar and rubber band notes come to the foreground and the tannins become grippier and chalkier. It then picked up a nice bloody/ferrous note and texture and the fruit returned even more red and plush than before with more roses and rosehip. This is great, much preferred to the 2020 as this is already more complex, detailed and evolved much more while open. - Aaron C.
Arguably Italy’s most important fine wine region, Piedmont is synonymous with Nebbiolo, Barolo, and Barbaresco. It’s also home to a wide array of other compelling reds and whites that range from the austere to the juicy and joyful.
LOCATION:
Northwest Italy, bordering France and Switzerland, with the Alps to the north and the Apennines to the south.
TERROIR:
Rolling hills and foggy mornings define Langhe and Roero. Soils are mostly calcareous marl with sandy or clay-rich layers depending on the site. Continental climate with cold winters and warm summers.
VARIETIES:
Nebbiolo is king, producing powerful, tannic reds. Barbera and Dolcetto round out the red trio. For whites, look to Arneis, Cortese (Gavi), and Timorasso. Moscato is important in the Asti area.
