Nebbiolo

Nebbiolo is the grape behind the Barolo and Barbaresco wines 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 notoriously 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.

Langhe Nebbiolo is effectively the ‘second wine’ of Piedmont’s great Barolo & Barbarescos. This DOC is the only way Langhe producers can declassify their Barolo or Barbaresco fruit or wines to make an early-drinking style. Unlike Nebbiolo d’Alba, Langhe Nebbiolo can be cut with 15% other red indigenous varieties, such as Barbera or Dolcetto.

Nebbiolo flowers early and ripens late, so a long hang time, producing high levels of sugar, acidity and tannins; the challenge being to harvest the fruit with these three elements ripe and in balance. 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.

2014 Berry Bros. & Rudd Barolo by Giovanni Rosso, Piedmont

Giovanni Rosso, Piedmont, Ready, but will keep,

Made for us by Davide Rosso, our Barolo offers classic Nebbiolo character and structure. Scented raspberries and cherries are lifted by peach skin, high-toned florals and savoury spice. Accessible and seductive, the opulent texture is balanced by a racy freshness and a core of chalky minerality. Approachable now, this will also age well. Best decanted — and served alongside a rare steak.

2015 Langhe Nebbiolo, Cascina Fontana, Piedmont

Cascina Mario Fontana, Piedmont, Ready, but will keep,

Pretty nose with aromas of raspberry and red cherry, a hint of sweet spice and rose petal. On the palate the tannins are fine grained, the fruit has lovely concentration, held up by lively acidity and subtle notes of clove and sandalwood from time in slavonian oak botti grandi (1yr), and a lingering finish. Drink from 2018+

2014 Barolo, Brunate, Marcarini, Piedmont

Marcarini, Piedmont, For laying down,

This is one of the iconic Crus of the Langhe, and Marcarini’s flagship wine. Only half the average production was made from the Brunate vineyard in 2014 due to extreme weather, which led to severe selection in the vines. The results, though, are exceptional. The Brunate style showcases incredible depth and complexity with spice, a menthol character and an intense yet sweet tannic profile. Although more broad-shouldered than La Serra, the 2014 vintage has more finesse than other vintages, with mountain herbs, bright cherry, tobacco and hints of sweet wood. The palate is filled by an amazing purity of fruit with crunchy, mouth-watering energy. Drink now to 2040.

Giovanni Rosso, Piedmont, Ready, but will improve,

Aromas of kirsch and rose petal on the nose lead to a generous palate with lots of juicy red berry fruit. There is plenty of refreshing acidity and elegant tannins, with subtle notes of sweet spice and nutmeg. It is long, concentrated and delicious.

Cascina Luisin, Piedmont, Ready, but will improve,

Cherry tea, savoury herbs and a wave of chalky minerality on the nose leads onto an upfront palate, showcasing the depth and quality of this amazing site. Limestone soils give Asili more minerality and direction on the palate, supported by purity of fruit and light-footed intensity. Complex, poised and deep. Drink 2022-2040.

2014 Barolo, Cerretta, Giovanni Rosso, Piedmont

Giovanni Rosso, Piedmont, For laying down,

The Cerretta vines sit between 320 and 450 metres above sea-level on the eastern extremities of the Barolo area. The soils are mixed limestone and clay which give more plump and ripe styles compared to the mineral finesse of Davide’s other Serralunga sites. Three years in French botti grandi have polished these fine tannins which are as smooth as china, while the fruit is bright, fleshy, plummy and expansive. Drink 2020-2040.

2014 Barolo, Serra, Giovanni Rosso, Piedmont

Giovanni Rosso, Piedmont, For laying down,

Terrifyingly steep and totally calcareous soils make up this special vineyard, which perches in front of the Giovanni Rosso winery between 350 to 390 metres’ altitude. A stone’s throw across the road lies Vigna Rionda, the most prized vineyard in Barolo. The nose is brimming with bramble, crushed stone and floral highlights, inviting and electric. The palate is poised, linear and crunchy; saline minerality carries a wash of bright red and black berry fruits, pricked with fine oak spice and savoury charm. Ceramic-like tannins are both silky and chewy. Drink 2020-2038.

2001 Barbaresco, Bricco Nieve, Riserva, Dante Rivetti, Piedmont

Az Agri Dante Rivetti, Ready, but will keep,

This was my stand-out wine from a tasting with Ivan and Katia Rivetti in the hill-locked town of Nieve in Barbaresco. It shows the colours of the white soils of the Bricco di Nieve vineyard, which are more akin to Serralunga in nearby Barolo. The colour is brilliant and light, the nose is full of savoury notes – fine-grained leather and black olive. Dried red berry fruits, garden herbs and sun-dried tobacco fill the palate with vitality and energy. Drink now to 2025.

2013 Barbaresco Rabaja, Bruno Giacosa

Bruno Giacosa, Ready, but will keep,

This is the exciting new wine being presented by the Bruno Giacosa estate this year. The 2013 Barbaresco Rabajà comes from a half-hectare parcel purchased by Bruna Giacosa (Bruno's daughter) in 2013. Past incarnations of this wine were made with fruit that has now become part of the Asili cru under the revised map of vineyard crus. In other words, the name of the wine is technically the same, but the grapes used to make it are sourced from a different place starting with this vintage. This is a darkly enriched expression with ample power and muscle. The bouquet pours forth a beautiful array of dark fruit aromas with spice, smoke, laurel leaf and balsam herb. There's even a touch of aged cheddar or pecorino cheese that adds a spicy or piquant touch to the finish.

2009 Barbaresco, Angelo Gaja

Gaja, Drink now,

The complexity of this classic Barbaresco is the result of combining Nebbiolo from 14 estate-owned vineyards. A wine of infinite finesse, it displays the hallmark Barbaresco nose of forest fruits, plums, licorice, mineral notes, coffee and tar. Gaja Barbaresco is known for its dense structure, full-bodied and complex finish rich in silky tannins. Each Gaja Barbaresco is the expression of its vintage and has a long ageing potential.
