Sobrero Nebbiolo Langhe DOC
Red | 2022 | Italy, Piedmont | 14.0%
A very interesting example of Langhe Nebbiolo.Lively, crisp varietal expression on the nose, with redcurrant and raspberry in the lead, enriched with subtle notes of clove, nutmeg, and black pepper, concluding with nuances of liquorice and tar. The palate, rich and heady, offers an ambitious dynamic of succulent, chewy fruit, firm tannins, and bright acidity, concluding with a lengthy, ultra-savoury finish that brings final balance to a delicious Nebbiolo.

Producer Information
Producer Information
Established in the 1940s by Francesco Sobrero, this family-run winery has been carefully managed by third generation Flavio Sobrero since 2000. The family manages 16 hectares, three quarters of which are located in the heart of Langhe’s Castiglione Falletto region. Producing some of the region’s top-tier Langhe Nebbiolo, Sobrero is also lucky enough to own vines within six magnificent Crus: Villero, Pernanno, Ornato, Piantà, Valentino and Parussi. We were incredibly impressed by the balance between old and new school Nebbiolo expressions, and the conversion to organics in 2020 marks a new chapter in their family history.
