Nebbiolo Red Wine
In many ways, nebbiolo red wine is to Italy what pinot noir is to France. Similarly, a cool-climate red varietal, nebbiolo red wine is considered among the world’s most sophisticated, and is what gives the wines of Barolo, Barbaresco and Alba in Italy’s northwest their rose-perfumed, ethereal elegance, intense fruit profiles and robust levels of tannin and acidity. As such, wines made from nebbiolo typically show a remarkable capacity for ageing. Much like pinot noir, too, nebbiolo is notoriously tricky to cultivate to true ripeness. When done so successfully, however, this 'terroir'-driven varietal richly rewards both winemaker and drinker with its unique flavors and the wonderfully expressive nuances of the place in which it is grown.
