Tasting Notes

Vinous Antonio Galloni - 06 Dec 22
The 2020 Langhe Nebbiolo is almost shockingly young, such is the purity of its flavors. A burst of red/blue-toned fruit, lavender, rose petal, mint, sage and blood orange lends energy as well as depth. There's tremendous density here, not to mention tons of character. The 80% whole clusters are barely perceptible. I would be in no rush to open this. It would be a shame to miss the complexity that will surely develop over the coming years. The 2020 spent 12 months in cask.

Italy

Italy, renowned for its diverse wine styles, produces wines from a vast range of indigenous grapes, reflecting its varied climates and soils. Notable reds include Barolo and Barbaresco from Piedmont, made from Nebbiolo, and Brunello di Montalcino from Tuscany, crafted from Sangiovese. Chianti Classico, also from Tuscany, is known for its vibrant Sangiovese-based blends, while Veneto's Amarone is a rich, full-bodied wine made from dried grapes. Top producers like Gaja, Antinori, and Marchesi di Barolo exemplify Italy's commitment to quality and tradition in winemaking.
