A Baby Neb from the Family that Brought us the 8 Cru's, Sordo! This is your New House Neb!

Description

Along with Benevelli’s Langhe Neb this is Australia’s new house Neb! Grown on the sunny and steep vineyards of the Roero region in between the left bank of the Tanaro river and the nearby Langhe region. It sees 9 months in large old oak before a short spell in tank and some bottle time.

Bags of fun! A beautiful fragrance with a backbone of juicy fruit. Nice élévage sees it drinking beautifully now. The acid balances beautifully to give it that thirst-quenching dimension. With a dusting of slatey tannin, it is just so easy to hook a glass. Layers of liquorice, woody earth, and a little spice rest around the core of fresh cherry fruit.

Why is this Wine so Yummy?

Where in the World is the Roero?

The Roero sits just to the North of the Langhe. Sordo’s vineyards for the Gioso Nebbiolo D’Alba are just on the other side of the Tanaro river.
