If you are a lover of Nebbiolo, then you simply cannot miss the latest edition of Vietti’s Perbacco. If you are new to the grape, then there is no better wine to start your adventure with than this one!
Barolo and Barbaresco are the famous names for Nebbiolo... the secret to this gem , simply labeled "Nebbiolo" is all of the grapes come from Vietti’s estate vines planted in Barbaresco and the best Barolo Cru’s of the region, Brunate, Lazzarito, Ravera, these single vineyard bottlings sell for over $170 a bottle! The value is crazy and the juice is incredible. 100% Nebbiolo, each parcel is fermented and aged separately, then a careful selection process takes place. Some parcels make it to the Cru status, some are blended for the Castiglione Barolo bottling (and are aged for 4 years), the rest is Perbacco! Just 2 years of barrel ageing here, in both barrique and large Slavonian casks. Big robust baby Barolo, with all the hallmarks and intensity you’d expect from wines that cost over three times the price. We never get enough of this wine. Don’t miss it.
“Forget baby Nebbiolo! This assertive wine from Vietti is a stylish Langhe with a sleek nose and bracing palate. Bright ruby in the glass, it has telltale Nebbiolo aromas of rosehip and orange peel. Strawberry fruit is accompanied by firm, polished tannins, crisp acidity, and an amazing rhubarb savouriness that carries the finish. It comes from a selection of grapes grown in both Barolo and Barbaresco, mostly on the classic combination of limestone and clay. The wine is than aged for two years in Slavonian oak casks." Decanter
