From a rocky site in the Conn Valley, the 2014 Syrah Rogers La Herradura Vineyard was destemmed and brought up in French oak before being bottled unfined and unfiltered. Its deep purple color is followed by a ripe, sexy Syrah that has classic gamy blue fruits, lavender, tapenade, and peppery aromas and flavors. It's relatively forward and very much in the style of the 2014 vintage, yet has beautiful purity of fruit, medium to full body, and a big finish. Drink it any time over the coming 7-8 years.

The Wine Spectator92 pts

Brooding and well-structured, with tightly wound blackberry, crushed rock and smoky cracked pepper flavors that finish with firm tannins. Hands off for now.

AboutRoberto Voerzio Nebbiolo Langhe 2023

This isn't the standard Disanfrancesco, but a special LastBottle exclusive labeling.

Dave Santos

I bought it anyway, but any word on these exclusive bottlings from Roberto? I've never had his non exclusive offerings, so I wouldn't have that point of reference anyway, but I assume if he's putting his name on it, it's of good quality.

Replying to Dave Santos

I had this exact bottle a few weeks ago and I enjoyed it as a young nebbiolo. Intense on the nose (cherry jolly rancher and rose petal), surprisingly approachable for a 2023 nebbiolo. For the price I think it's a great buy.
