Tasting Notes
I really enjoyed this wine. It was exceptional! Giving it plenty of time to open and evolve it is traditional and old school in style. It spends it's life before bottle in large format older oak casks that give it time to integrate without adding any non-grape flavours. The wine is dusty, earthy and savoury for the most part, but it also shows plum-like fruit profile. Tannins are present as you would expect from Nebbiolo and they coat your entire mouth, so I'd recommend you get a hold of some protein. Phenominal wine in my eyes. - Chris L
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.
