 Tasted by Stanrocks on 8/25/2023 & rated 90 points: Piemonte Visit ... end of summer 2023; 8/23/2023-9/25/2023 (Piemonte Alba area): rated it 91/92 but considering the Galina that cale after it is more of a 90/91 TBH

I know some tasters find that one a bit too light but man, it reminds me of some of the best Burgundy regional, from top producers... who needs tannins, and power when elegance and fruit combines, in a perfectly enjoyable and balanced wine.

Nose of oyster, marine, cranberries, dried tomatoes, and rose after aeration, it is fragrant and interesting, quite complex...

Palates is salty, a bit light, almost too light, with M+ tannins, but it needs air to develop, and show a M+/L length with lots of saltines and salivating ... altogether a very nice Nebbiolo

Anyways, this is one to look after, if you like elegant, and fragrant refreshen wines. (272 views)
 Tasted by LEEJV123 on 7/4/2023 & rated 86 points: Light, fresh, fruity, short. (195 views)
 Tasted by denver_vinder on 10/22/2022 & rated 89 points: Very young but very nice. The nose opens slowly for cherries and white flowers; medium+ tannins, fine acidity, cherries with skin, a bit of anice and a hint of vanilla. Long, clean aftertaste. Somewhat understated, which often characterize Oddero’s wines. (297 views)

Nebbiolo

Nebbiolo is a red grape indigenous to the Piedmont region of Italy in the Northwest. The grape can also be found in other parts of the world, though they are not as respected.

Nebbiolo is often considered the "king of red wines," as it is the grape of the famed wines of Barolo DOCG, Barbaresco DOCG, and Roero DOCG. It is known for high tannins and acidity, but with a distinct finesse. When grown on clay, Nebbiolo can be very powerful, tannic, and require long aging periods to reach its full potential. When grown on sand, the grape exhibits a more approachable body with more elegant fruit and less tannins, but still has high aging potential.

"Nebbiolo" is named for the Italian word, "nebbia", which means "fog", in Italian and rightfully so since there is generally a lot of fog in the foothills of Piedmont during harvest.

Nebbiolo is a late-ripening variety that does best in a continental climate that boasts moderate summers and long autumns. In Piedmont, Nebbiolo is normally harvested in October.
