Vajra Langhe Nebbiolo 2018
piedmont,
italy
$55
Very appealing Nebbiolo. It opens with tarragon, aniseed, Chinese five spice and alpine herb in an immediately appealing attack on the senses. The palate provides plenty of interest, too, with fruit intermingling with acid as the wine builds to a big finish of chalk and tannin. The length is great and the wine finishes dusty, savoury and lightly drying, although the acid provides a wash of freshness and keeps you wanting more. Ches Cook, FWC.
Dark cherry, plenty of spice, rhubarb topped with biscuit crumbs, something a little earthy, and a good amount of perfume. It pulls fresher in the mouth, with red berries and spice, some almost chalky tannin grip, and a bright, but dusty feeling finish of good length. Very nice.
