This is Bryan Martin’s tip of the hat to wonderful Langhe rosso, the blend so loved and consumed by Piemonte locals. Once again, he sourced the fruit for this wine from the Bit of Heaven and Grove vineyards in Hilltops. This year’s wine comprises 85% Barbera and 15% Nebbiolo from vines rooted in duplex soils of clay and shale. Both parcels fermented as whole berries for 3 to 4 weeks in small, open-top fermenters before being racked to old barriques for 11 months’ maturation. A perfect companion for an autumn braise.

Reviews

“Crisp and slurpy at once, I said ‘that’s delicious’ as I finished my first taste and that theme continued as I reviewed. Super easy drinking, brittle if not crisp edges, tart cherry, cranberry, touch of Campari, a pleasing, slightly bitter finish. Great energy, a thirst-quenching nature to the wine, fine, chalky tannins lending freshness too. Oh yes, yum, terrific drinking.”
