"Terrific aromas of blackberries, toasted oak and cedar with hints of Cuban tobacco. Full-bodied, with a phenomenal richness and balance. It literally goes on for minutes. Layers upon layers of fruit and ripe tannins. Mind-blowing. How can Nebbiolo be better? This is a new wine from Voerzio, from one of Barolo's top vineyard sites."

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.
The 'King of Wines,' a powerful, tannic and perfumed Nebbiolo from Piedmont's Langhe hills, celebrated for tar-and-roses aromatics and extraordinary aging potential.
Produces pale but powerfully tannic and perfumed reds with tar, rose and cherry notes. The grape behind Barolo and Barbaresco, it is among the most age-worthy in the world.
