Description

In Giaconda you see the rare meeting of inspired winemaking and truly great terroir. All of their wines have a sense of gravitas to them, a precision that few can muster.

The Nebbiolo is a wine raised from the mature plantings of Nebbiolo on the great Giaconda site.

This is a brooding and muscular version of the variety from this producer, one that's allowed a little more time in bottle to relax before release.

Made in only small quantities, precious few bottles available are disappearing quickly into the cellars of those in the know.

Nebbiolo fan? Giaconda fan? This is a must-have for the cellar.

"How long to age this beauty? How long is a piece of string? Each return to the glass sees something new to admire, something else to cling to and wonder at... This could take a while to fully reveal so give it the time it deserves."
- Jeni Port (Halliday Wine Companion)

97 points - "How long to age this beauty? How long is a piece of string? Each return to the glass sees something new to admire, something else to cling to and wonder at. First, it was the aromas – so aromatic with a strong cherry, floral and herbal bent – and then a palate that ceased to simply go in a straight line, but kept diverting down interesting side alleys of dark flavours, spice, herbs, cocoa, earth and balsamic. And those tannins, a mesh of the savoury and the silky. This could take a while to fully reveal so give it the time it deserves." - Jeni Port (Halliday Wine Companion)

Roasted chestnuts, rose petal, forest floor undergrowth, dark orange chocolate and tar. A combination of Amphorae and geriatric oak have been used for Élevage. Scintillating tannins compliment the pristine fruit. A truly magnificent wine achieved through a lot of hard work and years of observation and persistence to bring the magic of quintessential Nebbiolo alive!
