Red
Langhe Nebbiolo
By Piero Busso, Barbaresco, Piemonte, Italy
A deliberate harvest selection rather than a lesser Barbaresco, made from younger vines on richer soils. Harmonious and balanced, with measured alcohol and tannins.
Tasting notes
Ruby red, harmonious on the nose. Fruity aromas with an elegant, persistent tannic weave.
