Cavallotto Langhe Nebbiolo 2009

Langhe, Italy

Dark and brooding, with impressive concentration that defies its humble appellation. Black cherry, rose petals, tobacco and anise build with remarkable depth and persistence. The structure here is serious. Firm tannins and bright acidity suggest this has the architecture of a proper Barolo. A Langhe Nebbiolo that punches well above its weight class.
