2020 Vietti Nebbiolo Perbacco Langhe, Piedmont

Medium deep ruby color. Quite intense and generous fruity nose (red berries) along with floral and spicy notes, a hint of menthol and hard candy. On the pallet medium bodied, showing notable intensity while retaining an essentially mid-weight style. Strong, intense and quite powerful when young, evolving to a complex and elegant, very well balanced wine with ageing. The tannins are harmoniously integrated in the fruit structure of the wine. Long lasting aftertaste with good freshness.

Hearty stew, wild game, roasted red meats and sharp, aged cheeses.

A gift to the Gods! Strong, intense and powerful, this nebbiolo is a stellar example of the fruits of Piedmont, with a nose full of truffle, cherry, tar and plum and the flavour to match. “Perbacco” translates to “For Bacchus” – this is Vietti’s offering to the Wine God. For such an offering, it would want to be good, and thankfully, it is! Enjoy it with hearty winter stews, roasted red meats and sharp aged cheeses..
