Red
Langhe Nebbiolo
By Giovanni Almondo, Roero, Piemonte, Italy
Labelled Langhe Nebbiolo but made in the traditional style of Roero's own "Nebbiolino": a light, versatile red from the estate's youngest Nebbiolo vines. Certified organic (IT-BIO-015, Agricoltura Italia).
Tasting notes
Gentle, fruity and floral, with a slightly spicy finish: raspberry, blackberry, redcurrant, violet and wild rose; dry, harmonious, velvety, with fresh, well-judged tannin.
