What to Expect

Nebbiolo is a fickle grape famed as much for its pale appearance as for its tannic character and produces some of the most perfumed and richly flavored wines. Though generally only medium-bodied, the wines possess rose and anise scented aromatics and deep flavors of cherry, orange peel and subtle green herb tones.

very ripe nose dominated by tarry and meaty elements with a floral topnote, lovely entry, nice density in the mouth with good but a touch low acidity, from 1999 on a blend that includes Bric fiasco for structure, Ravera, Fossati for finesse, Bussia Colonello for elegance, Villero

Vietti's Baroli are distinct. Polished with a clean palate of expressive Nebbiolo fruit.
