About the wine

Tasting notes

Roasted chestnuts, rose petal, forest floor undergrowth, dark orange chocolate and tar. A combination of Amphorae and geriatric oak have been used for Élevage. Scintillating tannins compliment the pristine fruit. A truly magnificent wine achieved through a lot of hard work and years of observation and persistence to bring the magic of quintessential Nebbiolo alive!

The Grape

Nebbiolo

Often referred to as the king of red grapes, Nebbiolo is responsible for some of the greatest wines in the world. The regions of Barbaresco and Barolo, in Piedmont, Italy, create the most revered expressions of the variety and have set the benchmarks for the world over. Nebbiolo is quite light in colour, dry and delicate but packs a punch in aroma and flavour with notes of rose, tar, cherry, red berries, blood orange, licorice, leather, terracotta and earthy herbals. These wines have high acidity and high tannins, making them extremely age worthy that deepen in complexity over decades. Simply stunning wines!
