About the wine
Tasting notes
An approachable and every day Nebbiolo that exceeds expectation. Pretty florals, sweet and juicy red fruit and cherry. It's fine and well flavoured but super light on its feet. It ends with a lick of tight and rocky minerality.

Nebbiolo
Often referred to as the king of red grapes, Nebbiolo is responsible for some of the greatest wines in the world. The regions of Barbaresco and Barolo, in Piedmont, Italy, create the most revered expressions of the variety and have set the benchmarks for the world over. Nebbiolo is quite light in colour, dry and delicate but packs a punch in aroma and flavour with notes of rose, tar, cherry, red berries, blood orange, licorice, leather, terracotta and earthy herbals. These wines have high acidity and high tannins, making them extremely age worthy that deepen in complexity over decades. Simply stunning wines!
