2009 LANGHE NEBBIOLO Sottimano
| Grapes: Nebbiolo | Origin: Italy, Piedmont |
Lea & Sandeman review
This is a scaled down version of the Barbaresco, in that it is sourced from the estate's younger vines (10 to 15 years old) from the Basarin vineyard, undergoes exactly the same vinification and is bottled six months earlier. Very approachable and elegant, almost Pinot like. Licorice and spice.Other reviews and comments
Made from young Barbaresco vines and therefore lighter in style than the estate's Barbaresco itself, this is fresh, delicate Nebbiolo for earlier drinking, showing lively ripe raspberry and plum fruit quality, tinged with spice. Mouthwateringly fresh juiciness and typical Nebbiolo tannins on the finish.
89/100

A savoury nose of mushrooms, truffles and leather. Very dry tannins but with more sour cherries than the nose suggests. Chewy, needs food to enhance its subtle plummy finish.
