"The 2007 Langhe La Villa (Barbera/Nebbiolo) is a seriously compelling and utterly delicious wine. The Nebbiolo complements the juicy Barbera fruit by adding a touch of verve, freshness and aromatic complexity that gives the wine an extra level of focus over the Larigi in this vintage. The 2007 La Villa is harmonious and impeccably balanced all the way through to the long finish. Simply put, this is a spellbinding wine from Altare."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
In Italy's northwest, Piedmont is home to Nebbiolo, the grape behind the powerful, perfumed and long-lived reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Fog-shrouded hills and calcareous soils define its greatest wines.
