This is a fruit-forward expression of Heathcote Nebb which is very reminiscent of Langhe, with a very light touch from the alcohol (12.7% ABV). It possesses beautiful aromas of red and black cherry, raspberry, violets, earth and herbs, which are reflected on the palate, which is silky and bright. With medium body, acid and soft yet slightly grippy tannins, it’s a nice wine for sipping or pairing with a meat dish.
