Description
A brilliant new limited edition red from the exceptional winemakers at Taltarni in Victoria. This 2016 Nebbiolo was made exclusively from single vineyard estate grown fruit with noticeable inspiration taken from it Barolo cousins where this fabulous grape has its most famed expression. The Pyrenees region saw an early warm spring in 2016 allowing for an extended growing season ideal for fully ripening these priced Nebbiolo grapes. The wine shows soft aromas of blackberry, cherry and rose water beautifully complimented by flavours of plum, violets and aniseed, all of which is underpinned with the varietal hints of tar. This rich, medium bodied wine is packed with flavour and complex tannins that slowly emerge and linger into a long finish. Recently awarded 91 Points in the Halliday Wine Companion. And in good Barolo tradition the wine has been allowed to mature before release, but it will easily cellar for another 4 – 6 years. Serve with all things Italian, like a mushroom and truffle pasta, a quattro formaggio pizza or a homemade beef lasagne.
