Nebbiolo
Tweet
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 $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 $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 $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 $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 $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 $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 $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 $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 $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.
