Pelissero (Italy)

Nebbiolo
Red Wine	Score: ✧✧✧✧✭

This Barbaresco shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of brick red, moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing, refined and elegant aromas that start with hints of cherry, plum and raspberry followed by aromas of violet, cyclamen, vanilla, cinnamon, licorice, tobacco, mushroom, chocolate and menthol. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a tannic attack and pleasing crispness, however balanced by alcohol, full body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of cherry and plum. A well made wine. Barbaresco Nubiola ages in cask.
