One our best releases. Sourced from three vineyards in Hilltops, from the super long 2023 vinatge then given 3 years in foudre, we think this is the best expression of nebbiolo. Floral, meaty, leans toward more savoury elements. The tannins are very long and persistent. 

If you are a nebbiolo nut, and who isn't, this delivers the true tar ands roses hit

Testimonials

Medium ruby-garnet, with red cherry and strawberry coulis, a whiff of blood orange aranciata and hints of rose petal and gravel road. Medium-bodied and supple, the flavours intense for the weight, and linear acidity lifting the fruit. There's a sanguine note through the middle palate, and oak evident more as tannin than flavour, fine-grained and persistent, drawing out a fine cherry lozenge finish. 95 Points The Real Review
