Surprisingly fragrant and floral, the 2016 Langhe Nebbiolo is redolent of rose hip, dried lavender bud and ripe strawberry. Those floral nuances seem to be directly linked to the ripeness of the wine, which is evident despite the relatively cool nature of this vintage. In fact, that ripeness tends to erase the natural complexities of this mighty grape. This is a simple, easy-drinking red (with 8,000 bottles made) available at an attractive price point.
