Available Exclusively to Reserve Circle Members Through End of September.
Nebbiolo is prized for its elegance and ageability in the Piedmont region of Italy. However, in America, it has been difficult to find a place for it to grow well. Presented to you is our first vintage with our young vines.Traditionally, young vines are fresh, fruity, and light, but lack the grace, pronounced flavors, and structure of old vines. That is what you see here, a fresh, fruity, moderately structured, and fun to drink wine. As our vines mature and our knowledge of this grape grows, the wines will continue to gain complexity and power.
-Jonathan Houston, Winemaker
The expression of our 2022 Reserve Nebbiolo on the nose is floral and of fresh strawberries. In the glass there are a lot of bright red fruit notes of raspberry, strawberry, cherry, and cranberry complemented by a hint of pepper and a smooth finish. We love pairing this wine with pizza – it’s equally good with a spicy version of sausage, pepperoni, and peppers or with a margherita pizza! Only 60 cases made of this very special Reserve Nebbiolo.
