Nebbiolo

£29.99

 

Having all his Nebbiolo vineyards sitiuated within Serralunga, enables winemake Sergio Germano to make characteristically powerful, muscular and intense wines, including the biggest, richest and most long-lived of all Borola. 

This wine is classically light in colour but do not be lulled, it is a full bodied wine that has spent a 2 years on oak, this produces with mineral earthy and complex wines with fine grain tannins, with touches of cocoa and hints of violet. The flavours just keep coming in layers, a very complex wine.

2007 was an excellent vintage for this area and Robert Parker has awarded 89 points to this wine.

Great with tomato pasta dishes but really good with lamb.

'Flori' has all the tell-tale Barolo characteristics with plum, mulberry, tobacco, leather and violet aromas, as well as hints of vanilla and spice. 

 

Tannins are firm and pleasingly supported with plump fruit and a round silky texture, giving a good lengthy finish.

Good depth of colour, garnet with brick red rim. Open and spicy nose with notes of dried fruits, woodsmoke and leather. Quite full flavoured with good concentration of approachable damson and wild cherry fruit, a warm and velvety mid-palate leading to the characteristic firm, structured finish.

De Bortoli retain some of the finest Cabernet vineyards in Yarra Valley. To make the consummate Victorian claret, parcels are vinified with a component of Syrah for suppleness and spice, while the addition of Nebbiolo contributes tannin structure and savouriness.

 

"There's plenty of wild ferment interest along the way, offering a layered complexity to its lifted dried flower nuances and dark chocolate depth!"
