Silvio Grasso Langhe Nebbiolo

colour: brick and roses mixed; bit cloudy. nose: sweet dried roses, some tobacco; delicate meat notes and later tea. not bad. taste: quite oaky; tannins still young and sharp and opaque; medium lenght bit tart finish. Some red currants. Lay down.

Light bodied, slightly too acidic, ok finish

quick tasting @ l'Insieme Tour 2013: Juicy, almost easy drinking Nebbiolo with elegant cool climate fruit, clean, pure, fruity and with unobstrusive tannins, much lighter than the Barolos, nice to drink now, probably best with food. Good value. - 88 points
