Lovely Nebbiolo for a gorgeous spring day in Oakham.
I have tasted my way though quite a few 2007 Nebbiolo and it is a unique vintage, the winter was almost non-existant and spring came early, this meant that the harvest also was early but not because it was particularly hot. So the wines have the forward characteristics of an early harvest without the burnt rubber flavours.
This is ready to drink! Strawberry, rose and violet - none of the black tea and tar that young nebbiolo usually assaults the senses with, this is a real crowd pleaser.
