2018 La Spinetta Langhe Nebbiolo
Distinctive and Great
August 23, 2021
 |
You can always pick it out La Spinetta when you do a blind tasting of Nebbiolos with it in the mix. That’s because it is intense, intriguing, and harmonious. Giorgio Rivetti and his family have certainly created one of the most outstanding wineries in the world. The 2018 La Spinetta Langhe Nebbiolo is also a ridiculous value.
All of the grapes used to make this wine are from Giorgio’s Barbaresco vineyards, especially Starderi. The vines are about 20 years old and farmed organically. This wine has all that you expect from great Nebbiolo. It also is full-bodied with a layered texture. Bravo. Bravissimo.
2018 La Spinetta Langhe Nebbiolo: Deep ruby. Fresh cherry, violets, roses, and oriental spice. Rich flavors with a hint of cedar in the finish. Excellent 29.99/bottle
Special six-pack: 6 bottles of the above for a special price of $167.94 (27.99/bottle)
Special case: 12 bottles of the above for a special price of $306 (25.50/bottle
