Langhe Nebbiolo DOC - La Spinetta

The Langhe Nebbiolo DOC from La Spinetta presents itself in the glass with a dark, almost black ruby red and reveals its expressive bouquet. Aromas of plums, blackcurrants, and blueberries come together, underpinned by a hint of peppermint.

This red wine from Piedmont is full-bodied and juicy with an elegant finish. A wine with good acidity and fresh, fine tannins.
