Red
Langhe Nebbiolo
By Réva, Barolo, Piemonte, Italy
A Nebbiolo from San Sebastiano at Monforte d'Alba, farmed differently from the Barolo plots: bunches are shaded by foliage and not over-thinned, to keep freshness. About 12,000 bottles are made.
Tasting notes
Full and elegant on the palate, with soft, enveloping tannins. Aromatic bouquet of rose, red berry fruit and spice.
