Abrigo Fratelli Langhe Nebbiolo

A young-vine Langhe Nebbiolo from a 0.4 ha plot planted in 2020, aged in steel for an easy-drinking, fresh style.

Tasting notes

Colour: clear, fairly intense ruby red with brick red reflections. Bouquet: fairly intense, fine and complex, balsamic floral violet intertwined with redcurrant and raspberry, a hint of cut grass. Taste: dry, very fresh, fruity of raspberry, redcurrant and cherry, mineral and persistent, velvety tannin, fairly balanced and intense, easy to drink but long-lived thanks to structure and acidity.
