“An attractive and utterly charming Nebbiolo, sourced from a biodynamically farmed 1.7ha cru in La Morra. Positively charged with bright Bing cherry fruit, white pepper nuances and hints of tobacco and fresh thyme. The palate offers a medium-bodied expression with intense, focused tannins – more fine-grained and layered than the 2020. There’s remarkable tension and crunchy, grippy acidity framing the finish, suggesting this will be every bit as long-lived as the 2020 release. Aged for 24 months in 25% new French oak.”
