Burting with vibrancy, fruit, tannin, lots of earthy mineral. Can age a lot longer but wonderful with an italian meal. (1059 views) | | | Tasted by StefanAkiko on 3/2/2014 & rated 90 points: Miniinferno #1 in Umeå (Hemmavid, Umeå): This is a great wine with a great Nebbiolo profile.
Because of the fierce competition from the next btl, this one was mainly forgotten. By itself, it would be a great wine to have for a full dinner... But, tonight, it suffered from a too strong competitor. (3268 views) |

| Cigliuti Producer websiteNebbioloNebbiolo 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.
