2021 Luigi Oddero Langhe Nebbiolo
Description: | Sourced from the lower-altitude slopes within the estate's parcels in the crus Rive (La Morra) and Scarrone (Castiglione Falletto), Oddero's Langhe Nebbiolo is effectively a Barolo—at least in terms of its zip code. While these more clay-dominated parts of the crus yield fruit of less mineral-inflected complexity than those destined for the Barolo bottlings, one still senses the elegance and lurking power of which these environs are capable. It undergoes a briefer maceration than the Barolo in order to emphasize its freshness and perfume, and aging takes place in massive 85-hectoliter oak botti for 18 months. This wine displays fine-grained tannins and impressive length, with attractive and effusive aromas of roses, herbal spice, and perfectly ripened strawberries. |
