Most of the Nebbiolo in this Langhe bottling comes from the Roero region of Piedmont, which was once a lake. Ths soils are abundant with seashell fossils and sand, which give Nebbiolo a high-pitched, red-fruited juicy character, reminiscent of Pinot Noir. And the tannins, are very un-Nebbiolo like, silkly and smooth versus big and harsh. We call it, "User-friendly" Nebbiolo. Just pop the cork, pour, and gulp!
