Perbacco Langhe Nebbiolo 2021

This is a blend of mostly Barolo with a tad of Barbaresco Nebbiolo. It is bright as can be, full of red cherry, a whiff of earth and something even a tad sanguine. It is tasty and ready to drink now but could use more integration — a month ago

Langhe Nebbiolo 2022

I think Produttori’s langhe is one of all time best values every year and this is no exception. This has great red and a smidge of purple fruit. Tannins are quite present but with a bit of air they fall into balance (though this could certainly take time). Excellent pairing with a simple but high quality pork chop. Very nice acid on the finish. Really enjoyable. — a month ago

Vigneto Monvigliero Barolo Nebbiolo 2011

Despite coming from an extremely hot growing season, this fragrant pleases from the start with a floral hint. Little hint of cherry and long silky finish. Beautiful juice that, like many Piedmonte wine, is quite Burgundian in character. — 6 days ago

Sito Moresco Langhe Nebbiolo Blend 2021

Tasted on Saturday 8 February 2025.
I could sense a subtle sweetness and fruitiness. At first, it was fiery and intense, but it gradually transitioned into a faint yet remarkable long-lasting aftertaste.

Barolo Nebbiolo 2015

“Please don’t call it regular”…. more bricking than expected at 10 years old. But tasted fresh. An hour decant helped. — 4 days ago

Tasted the 18’ vintage and wasn’t too impressed, given the price point. This ‘17 is quite similar to the ‘18 - nice fragrant nose but the fruits felt a bit diluted on the palate. Granted neither the ‘17 nor the ‘18 is a strong vintage, but there are better bottlings for less. — a month ago

Piemonte is puzzling with flashes of rare hits. Really makes you work to discover the gems. Check out Diego Conterno’s Monforte ‘17.

@Jae Cho thanks for the suggestion. Not familiar with the producer and don’t recall seeing it on retail shelf. Just looked up your notes. Will be on the lookout.
