| Name | Rizzi Langhe (DOC) 2020 (ID# 3994) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Varietal | Nebbiolo | |||
| Region | Italy: Piedmont | |||
| Notes | "Offers up a beautiful, red fruity nose of cherries, blood orange, game bird, rose petals, lovely spice tones, a complex base of chalky soil tones and a touch of cedar. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied, tangy and beautifully transparent in personality, with a lovely core of red fruit, superb mineral undertow, buried tannins and a long, complex and impeccably balanced finish. This shows its Barbaresco pedigree and will be a superb drink with a few years bottle age. A great, great value! 2027 – 2045+" (The Cellar) Importer: The Sorting Table. | |||
Additional Notes "A terrific value option, the Rizzi 2020 Langhe Nebbiolo has a little spice, a little ripe fruit and a lot of easy-drinking personality. It shows cherry, sweet peach and candied licorice. It feels smooth and silky on the finish, making it a good choice for a creamy spaghetti cacio e pepe." (Wine Advocate) |
