Country: Italy / Albesani Santo Stefano
Variety: Nebbiolo Piedmont
Winery: Castello di Neive / Barbaresco
This wine’s classic Nebbiolo scents of fragrant blue flower, new leather, aromatic herb and red berry waft out of the glass. The firmly structured palate offers Marasca cherry, sage, truffle and ground clove flavors framed by tightly woven but refined tannins and vibrant acidity. A licorice note rounds out the finish.
