From: Piedmont, Italy
Varietal: Nebbiolo
Tasting Notes: On the palate, the wine fills the mouth, full and rich, ample, heady at the front, then structured at the center and finish. The red fruit flavors are deep and rich, as is typical for the site in a warmer year, then followed by a well-structured mid palate with racy tannins that will need 4-6 years of bottle age to soften. The fruit impression is balanced by long and mineral finish with fine-grained tannins. This prized site always gives us wines that are ripe, full and elegant – and 2017 is a great example for mid-term cellaring.
