The wine looks crimson colored. It smells like blood orange orange, cherry and citrus It tastes heavily like blood orange orange, tart cherry and some forest floor. The body is light. The wine has narrow texture and high acidity (for a Nebbiolo).
Could be good on a hot day but I didnt enjoy it.

Upon opening this is quite shy but after one hour of aeration gains power while retaining its delicate LN character. Nicely savory and fresh, this displays terroir. The palate is filled with wild strawberries, dry cherries, leather, roses and minerals. Slightly gum during fruit tannin provides structure and makes this also a food wine. Good medium finish with flavors of red berries. Another lovely example of expressive and attractive vintage 2021 Langhe Nebbiolo.

Consumed over three nights, this (L19922) was best on night three. It is a very nice, savory, high-toned Nebbiolo, a food wine, not for cocktails. For lovers of this style. Drink to 2035. Great QPR.

There is a nice texture and play between the high acidity and twiggy tannins, some subtle floral note and a bit of red fruit, though not quite the best pretty fruit I've enjoyed in past vintages. Overall quite nice sipping and dinner wine.

Blood orange, maraschino cherry, hibiscus/roses, clove, spices and some earthiness but overall quite fresh and bright with a balance of fruit and earth.

Decanted one hour before dinner, this (L19922) is a lovely, aromatic, savory Nebbiolo in a light style, with a translucent color, great structure, firm acidity and some tannic grip. A nice food wine, and a very good QPR.

Light red, some hints of orange. Red fruit on the nose, balanced rather fresh taste. Tannic finish - it is nebbiolo after all - that lasts well. Not complex, but still nice.

Dusty dried flower aroma's. Raspberry fruit and very nice tannins drying your mouth. Medium acidity. Lovely balance, not too complex. With more air the cherry starts to pop out.

Fairly closed though it seems from the other notes that i should have given it some more air. Tight acidity and tannins and somewhat cherry like, but not as fresh perhaps as i would have liked.

At first very closed. Takes at least 1-2 hours to open up. Focused and fairly intense aromas that is more in the spice and oak camp than fruit (red cherry). Medium and fresh body with more acidity than fruit. Drink now, next year or in five years. Love this producer (especially the marcenasco barolo).

Inviting nose of red fruit and baking spice. Silky tannins and just the right amount of acidity to make you crave for the next sip. Very friendly and easy drinking.

Floral nose, also strawberries and blood orange. Firm tannins and a lovely acidity. Not especially complex but a fine expression of Nebbiolo.

Savoury, cherry, and meat nose. Mid-weight palate with good viscosity and balanced grip; fresh finish with good flavours and length.
4/5

Cherries, red and black. Some earthy spice. Really good Nebbiolo for under $25.
