Every bit the Nebbiolo found in some of the greatest known Baroli. Cavallotto humbly crafts their "simple" Langhe Nebbiolo with fruit that deserves to be (and will age similarly to) D.O.C.G. wines from nearby neighbors. Massively structured. Intensely poised. Tannin, power, supple red and black fruits, savory herbs are all present and accounted for in this classical powerhouse wine. Drink now - 2040. - Neil
This Langhe Nebbiolo is fruit from younger vines of Cavallotto's Barolo estate, vinified in nearly the same way as their Barolos, making it a chewy and substantial example of the type. The wine is medium red in the glass, with aromas and flavors that are classical of Nebbiolo di Barolo: red fruits, clear notes of cedar, sandalwood, tobacco leaf, and hints of herbs. Medium tannins and excellent length.
Drink this as you would a bigger Pinot Noir, with flavorful pastas, roast chicken, or any red meat.
