Nebbiolo
Nebbiolo is the grape behind Barolo and Barbaresco and is hardly
ever seen outside the confines of Piedmont. It takes its
name from "nebbia" which is Italian for fog, a frequent phenomenon in the
region.
A notoriousy pernickety grape, it requires sheltered south- facing sites and performs best on the well-drained calcareous marls to the north and south of Alba in the DOCG zones of Barbaresco and Barolo.
Nebbiolo is a late ripener and produces wine of high acidity and with high tannins. The best Barolos and Barbarescos are perfumed with aromas of tar, rose, mint, chocolate, liquorice and truffles. They age brilliantly and the very best need ten years to show at their best.

2007 was notable for its early season, mild summer and long dry autumn giving wines that are immensely charming, fruit expressive and giving even when young (while we wait for the 2004 and 2006s to grow-up).

"Aged only in large slavonian botte, this fine wine benefited from the hot summer to give extremely luscious and elegant, super-ripe strawberry and dried fruit flavours. Seems approachable now but would be even better over the next 3-5 years. Excellent with tuna." (David Berry Green - BBR ... MORE | ||||
