"Medium red, with a faint orange tinge. Very subtle, reticent nose hints at nuts, menthol, truffle and mint. Quite dense and full, with excellent vinosity giving it insinuating cut and clarity. Complex, understated flavors nicely framed by ripe acids. Finishes quite subtle and long, with red berry fruit outlasting the building, well-buffered tannins. Still quite young, but a very good showing today."

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.
