Red
Langhe Nebbiolo
By Pelissero, Barbaresco, Piemonte, Italy
Made from grapes judged unsuitable for Barbaresco that year, mostly from younger vines.
Tasting notes
Clear, bright violet-red with the lighter rim typical of Nebbiolo. Persistent, fragrant, open aromas of strawberry and raspberry. Good length with the light tannin of young Nebbiolo, well wrapped in wood.
