De Forville Nebbiolo d'Alba San Rocco 2007
Varietal: Nebbiolo
Region: Piemonte
Plum colored and full-bodied, DeForville's Langhe Nebbiolo shows tar and rose petal—the calling cards of Nebbiolo—but it also shows cherry and other dark red fruits and a less pronounced tannin level. It's a Nebbiolo whose cheery disposition doesn't demand the introspection so many other Nebbiolos require.
About the Producer
Since moving from Belgium to the Barbaresco region of Piemonte in
1860, the DeForville family has been cultivating Nebbiolo grapes. The
25-acre DeForville estate solely sold wine to neighbors and restaurants
until 1940, when it released its first bottlings. Owned and operated by
Valter and Paolo Anfosso, descendents of the original DeForvilles, this
estate is committed to cultivating and vinifying their wines in
traditional methods in order to create age-worthy wines whose earth,
fruit and flower complexity grow more nuanced as the wines mature. |
