The 2015 Langhe Nebbiolo Gavarini is solid, but not quite the overachiever it can be. Dried flowers, herbs and tobacco add aromatic nuance, but the flavors are a bit too forward for a young wine.

Vinified in stainless steel, the 2015 Langhe Nebbiolo Gavarini offers a pure and unmasked expression of the grape. This is an easy-drinking wine that exhibits a pretty floral bouquet, vibrant berry flavors and a streamlined approach in the mouth. The crisp acidity makes it ideal for cheesy pasta dishes or lasagna. Gianluca Grasso tells me this wine is his hottest selling product among local consumers and restaurants. This is the first year that fruit from his new vineyard site is used.
