Viña Alicia 2008 Coleccion de Familia Nebbiolo (Luján de Cuyo)

Country: Argentina / Mendoza Province
Variety: Nebbiolo
Winery: Viña Alicia / Coleccion de Familia

Smoky and rustic upfront, this mature Nebbiolo smells of cherry, cassis and wet cement. In the mouth, this is a bit heavy and syrupy, with grabby tannins and an overall sticky feel. Ripe, candied berry, cocoa and oaky flavors flatten out and turn chocolaty on the finish.
