Red
Langhe Nebbiolo
By Renato Corino, Barolo, Piemonte, Italy
A Nebbiolo from 1.3 ha of La Morra vineyards, aged 12 months in French oak that previously held Barolo. About 8,000 bottles a year.
Tasting notes
Colour: transparent ruby red. Nose: floral bouquet of roses, wild mint and vanilla, long and fine. Palate: intense, very fresh, pleasant and gently tannic. A charming Nebbiolo, enjoyable in the first few years after release, with strawberries and a hint of smoke.
