2019 Nebbiolo, Alisos Vineyard
Details
2019 will sadly be the last vintage of Alisos Nebbiolo. The vineyard was completely removed. Planted in 2006 on a rocky hillside at the top of the ridge, this was a premier spot for difficult to grow nebbiolo with it's relatively warmer nights and mild days that had just enough heat to ripen this very slow ripening variety.
Classically balanced aromatics of earthy tar and light and lovely rose, raspberry, sweet balsamic, and mushroomy earthiness. on the palate there's a beautiful lift of fruit to compliment the perfectly rustic tannins and lingering notes of violet and cherry.
This is a wine to savor with a long meal or conversation. It's expression is so different from start to finish.
