Nebbiolo

Share

Ioppa Ioppa $16.00

In the northwest area of Piemonte lies the DOC Colline Novaresi, from where this wine hails. 100% Nebbiolo and 100% stainless steel fermentation. Bright red fruits, watermelon rind, grapefruit with a rustic quality indicative of Nebbiolo. Still a bit of structure that makes this wine a certified winner for the summer.


Fiore Nebbiolo Fiore Nebbiolo $16.00

A beautifully balanced Nebbiolo. Aromas of dried violets, earth and hints of anise. The palate yields more savory earthiness, dark cherry, pomegranate, subtle notes from oak. Enough tannin to wait a few years, but enough acid to approach now. We envision a glass of this next to a piece of roast lamb.


Garetto in Pectore Barbera Garetto in Pectore Barbera $17.00

This is Barbera done for the American palate! Huge plum, spice and cedar show in this rich warm wine that envelopes your senses. Superiore means extra ripeness and alcohol in Italy and there's no doubt after even one sip.


Rivetto Barbera d'Alba Rivetto Barbera d'Alba $18.00

Our newest addition to the flight list is this Barbera dAlba from the Piedmont region of Italy. The Sommeliers searched and searched to find a rock star replacement for the previous Barbera which was beloved by all, and here it is. Smooth and juicy with hints of blackberries and wild flowers, smoke and char make it a perfect match for grilling and heavy cheeses.



Rivetto Langhe Nebbiolo Rivetto Langhe Nebbiolo $19.00

Nebbiolo is the same grape that makes our Barolo, Barbaresco, and Roero. This is the everyday version. Soft and herbal, tea colored with scents of dark cherry, tobacco, spices, basil and forest floor. Great food wine and also a fabulous sipper. Have anytime, with or without friends. Try it next door, we know youll be back.


Giovanni Rosso Langhe Nebbiolo Giovanni Rosso Langhe Nebbiolo $21.50

Excellent value wine from the Northwest of Italy, perhaps the best on our list, with dried fruits, spice and warm mocha cream. Loads of terroir and character but not overly heavy and still smooth. Great with any sort of game or grilled meats, even pasta in a Ragu.


N.S. Della Neve N.S. Della Neve $30.00

What?? Two of the best red grapes for sparkling finally put together in a 50/50 blend from Barolo of all places. Smoky cherry nose, lean strawberry and some stone character. Completely farmed by hand on steep slopes, this crisp and clean bubbly is a favorite, when we can get it that is!


Pasquale Pelissero Barbaresco Pasquale Pelissero Barbaresco $34.00

If your arent sure where to begin with our Nebbiolos, this is our middle one. Barbaresco is the Queen of the Piedmont, all light and finesse but packed with dried cherry, leather, tobacco and dried tea leaves. Elegance and Power


Michele Chiarlo Michele Chiarlo $42.50

What a beautiful find! For being so young this Barabaresco is super approachable. Dark cherry, leather, tobacco, and a subtle hint of chocolate. The lovely acidity balances well with the slightly grippy tannins. Pair with a steak or hard cheeses.


Cavallotto Barolo Cavallotto Barolo $75.00

As far as Barolo is concerned, 2016 is considered one of those magical vintages. Nebbiolo needs the perfect conditions to express itself fully, and this is that expression! Beautiful notes of violets, raspberry and red fruits. Smoky, sweet tobacco, grippy tannins and gorgeous acidity. This is one for the collection for it can lay down for 20-30 years.

    Sori Gramella refers to the one of the only single vineyard Moscatos, and Marco is the only producer to bottle this striking limestone amphitheater commercially. Once the 30 year old vines give up their bounty, and the grapes are harvested and pressed, they are kept in stainless steel at a low temperature to prevent fermentation until an order is received in order to provide the freshest wine possible.

  • Amon Ra

    Amon Ra

    The 2014 Amon Ra reflects the tried and true essence of the Glaetzer style - generosity of flavor with finesse of structure. The inky purple color displays the gentle but full extraction. The nose shows an abundance of dark blueberry, vanilla, black cherry and hints of cassis with notes of mixed spice and anise. Although still young and firmly wound, the vibrant blackberry and dried spice flavors integrate well with youthful yet supple tannins with the trademark loooong and sleek finish. Meant to go 10 to 15 years to hit its prime.
