100% Nebbiolo and excitingly sultry. You’re in Piemonte, it’s Nebbiolo, you can’t help but start tasting the wine with your minds Barolo and Barbaresco files opened, but this is quite different and you quickly have to do a bit of a reset.
Cascina Preziosa Coste della Sesia Nebbiolo ‘Castleng’ is a wonderfully polished wine with delicious ripe fruit at its heart. 13 months in large format oak, 8 months in bottle before release. There’s plenty of ‘perfume’ behind the savoury and spicy notes and of course there’s tannin and acidity and plenty of structure but this definitely isn’t Barolo.
Please note: All case wine orders can take between 7-10 days for delivery.
