Giuseppe Nada Langhe Nebbiolo 2021
There are few Nebbiolos available for less than $20 anymore. It’s a tricky grape to work with, like Pinot Noir, it can be a real pain in the pruning shears during the growing season. It’s also a grape that can reach incredible heights, so it demands a high price on the market. Yet here we have the Giuseppe Nada Langhe Nebbiolo from a property that’s been in the Nada family for 120 years and remains just 6 hectares, all within Barbaresco’s borders. The farming is done organically and all the red wines are fermented with native yeast – a nerve-testing practice that generally makes wine more expensive. Giuseppe’s son Enrico does the winemaking, and blends this Langhe Nebbiolo from the Marcarini and Casot Crus in the village of Trieso. It’s made in a seamless, delicate style, with aromas of anise, tar, ceder, cherry cordial, strawberry, orange peel and cinnamon that lead into a broad yet balanced palate defined by red cherry and orange peel and a rim of chalky tannins. The finish is paved with fruit, crushed leaves, and fennel seed. This wine belongs next to a cheese board or some sort of roast pork. Stock up before someone realizes it should cost twice as much.
