The 2007 Langhe Nebbiolo is simply beautiful. Medium in body, it floats on the palate with red cherries, flowers, spices and minerals, showing an ethereal, delicate personality that is uttery convincing. The fruit blossoms nicely on the palate, with an attractive roundness that balances that tannins exceptionally well. This entry-level rd is the hidden gem in La Spinetta's line-up, and it is highly recommended. La Spinetta's Langhe Nebbiolo is made from young vines in the Starderi vineyard and spends 12 months in French oak. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2017. This is a hghly successful set of new releases from La Spinetta. The wines show great balance and class across the board.
