Ghemme, Italy

WineSaint
Genuine Nebbiolo character in a lighter register. Dried rose, red cherry and violet lead, with the grape's firm tannins providing structure without overwhelming the delicate fruit. A thread of dried herbs and crushed stone surfaces on the finish, adding just enough complexity to keep things interesting. Versatile at the table.
