Here is a special, very limited release (only one barrel produced) of our very first estate Nebbiolo. We are excited to share this with you!
Nebbiolo is prized for its elegance and ageability in the Piedmont region of Italy. However, in America, it has been difficult to find a place for it to grow well. Presented to you is our first vintage with our young vines.Traditionally, young vines are fresh, fruity, and light, but lack the grace, pronounced flavors, and structure of old vines. That is what you see here, a fresh, fruity, moderately structured, and fun to drink wine. As our vines mature and our knowledge of this grape grows, the wines will continue to gain complexity and power.
-Jonathan Houston, Winemaker
