Tasting Notes
This is Langhe Nebbiolo just the way I like it. Paolo Conterno is a producer who lives through tradition and it's obvious in his wines. This Nebbiolo is aromatically lifted showing typical rose petal characters and hints of dried bouquet garni. The palate is old school too and becomes obvious as the tannin profile builds through the back palate. A serious wine for those that appreciate it. - Chris L
Flowery nose, showing roses and fruity sensations. Mouth-filling and elegantly-structured; round with complex, slightly spicy flavours lingering nicely on the palate.
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.
