Cordero di Montezemolo : Langhe Nebbiolo 2023

Here's an informal and versatile wine to pair with your favorite pasta dishes. The Cordero di Montezemolo 2023 Langhe Nebbiolo offers hints of mint and dried flower over dried blueberry and blackcurrant. The wine ferments in stainless steel and cement, and no oak is used. However, the 2023 vintage was not an easy one, and although there is freshness, the fruit also appears slightly faded. This is an ample release of 50,000 bottles.

A powerful version, this red offers a broad profile that exhibits cherry, raspberry, earth and hibiscus flavors. Fresh and crunchy, with a juicy finish. Enjoy slightly chilled. Drink now through 2032. 4,300 cases made, 1,700 cases imported.

Three days on the skins and only stainless steel. Pale-ish crimson. Highly recognisable varietal nose with cherry and wild-strawberry fruit and notes of mace. Juicy, sappy red fruit with a fine grip of tannins on the finish. A glou-glou wine. Light, simple and delicious. (WS)

A youthful ruby color, the 2023 Langhe Nebbiolo is pretty on the nose with aromas of raspberry liqueur, wildflowers, minty fresh herbs, and sweet earth. Medium-bodied, it is juicy and refined on the palate, with an easygoing nature and a clean finish. This is a highly appealing and easygoing wine to drink over the near term.
