Tasting notes
Another terrific wine in this range, the 2016 Langhe Nebbiolo is a real powerhouse. Deep, resonant and super-expressive, the 2016 will leave readers weak at the knees. It is every bit that good. Translucent in the glass, yet also beautifully layered, the 2016 captures the essence of both the vintage and house style, with tons of Nebbiolo character and exceptional finesse.

The 2016 Langhe Nebbiolo is made with fruit from the estate's youngest vines. These are vines that are not yet ready to be used for Barolo. This is a raspy and brambly expression with wild fruit tones, bitter almond, cola and crushed fennel seed. There is a note of spiciness on the close that adds to the wine's overall freshness and zest. This is an easy-drinking Nebbiolo to pair with pork chops or simple lamb dishes.
