Tasting Notes

The Langhe Nebbiolo expresses the noble character of the prestigious vineyards of origin: a intact garnet red colour with good intensity and beautiful hues; fruity scents such as raspberry and red fruit jam with spices reminiscent of cinnamon and green pepper; the taste is rich, dry, persistent, beautiful personality and pleasant tannins.
