Description

The Langhe Nebbiolo is produced in the zone of Basarin, in the area of Neive. It is an historical and very prestigious vineyard. Its position, on the border between the zone of Neive and Treiso, together with high altitude gives the wines a particular note of spices with a hint of licorice, as well as great complexity and a considerable structure. The vines are very young, about 14-15 years old, and for this reason the grapes cannot yet express the richness of polyphenols or all the aromas and the ”nuances” that an important cru like this could have. That’s why we decided to declassify it from Barbaresco docg to Langhe Nebbiolo.

The 2009 Langhe Nebbiolo is a serious wine, which is not surprising as the fruit comes from Basarin, a vineyard several producers use for their Barbaresco. Dark red cherries, flowers, licorice and mint are some of the nuances that waft from the glass, but the tannins are too fierce for the wine to offer much pleasure today. With time this will be an overachiever among its peers. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2021. ”
