Tasting Notes
Violet, forest berry, cedar and spice aromas come to the forefront on this perfumed red. Agile and delicious, the lithe, full-bodied palate brings home succulent red cherry, raspberry compote and baking spice while taut, smooth tannins give it a silky texture. Fresh acidity keeps it balanced. Already accessible, it will also age well for several years or longer. Drink through 2030. - Kerin O’Keefe 95/100
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.
