Explosively aromatic and flavorful, this is Nebbiolo with excellent concentration and structure that stays open and supple enough to drink right now. As Suckling writes in the 93 point rave, “Mineral and savory nose with lots of crushed stones, iron, seaweed, spiced blood orange and cranberries. Structured and vertical on the palate but nothing fleshy here. It shows more mineral tension and tautness than fruit. A pure, long Nebbiolo Langhe that gives clarity and precision. Already very drinkable now, but can hold as well.” From vines 15 years and younger across the vineyard of Doug’s favorite Barolo estate, it’s a terrific value, too.
For You If: You love the aromas and flavors of Barolo and want that in a wine that’s open enough to drink now and delight guests who might find “real” Barolo too astringent or tannic.
Not For You If: You absolutely, positively, don’t like reds with a lot of tannin – BUT while there’s lots of tannin here, it’s wonderfully supple and ripe and fades beautifully after each sip.
