2023 Giovanni Almondo - Langhe Nebbiolo DOC (750ml)
Its denomination is Langhe Nebbiolo, its spirit is that of Roero Nebbiolo.
It was born of our youngest Nebbiolo vines, 20 years of age. It takes inspiration from the traditional Roero Nebbiolino, the most authentic and honest expression of the Nebbiolo grown from the sands of Roero, the one that old people recognized as the true Roero Nebbiolo. This is a light-hearted and graceful wine. On the nose, you immediately understand the difference compared to structured and intense Nebbiolo wines, with its gentle fruity and floral fragrance, a slightly spicy finish as well as overtones of raspberries, blackberries, currants, violets and wild roses.
On the palate, it is dry, harmonious, velvety, with touches of freshness and the right amount of tannin. Within the traditional culture of Roero, this was an all-round wine and this great versatility does show.
