Pizzini La Volpe Nebbiolo 2024

A lighter, prettier style of Nebbiolo; the fruit is selected from a vineyard that allows for earlier drinking. Still distinctly Nebbiolo though, with aromas of cherries, rose petals, and a hint of redcurrant, while tar and truffles linger in the background. It tastes bright and lively, with flavours of cranberry juice and pomegranate jewels. The tannins are fine and chalky with the texture of red delicious apples. Careful tannin management keeps them at the right level for this early-drinking style. A hint of leather on the finish and refreshing, balanced acidity keeps you reaching for another sip.
