Camparo DOC Langhe Rosso
£14.95
With 50% Dolcetto, 25% Nebbiolo and 25% Barbera all harvesting is done by hand in small boxes, helping to preserve grape quality. The three grapes are vinified separately using only the natural yeasts, and just the right portion is aged in oak before the final blending of the wine. This food-friendly wine offers a great introduction to this region. The nose is full with aromas of black cherry, cedar and cured ham followed by a full and fruity berried palate with balancing lifting acidity and well judged tannins.
Taste

Aroma
Dried herb and light oak, Summer berries

Although I ordered this wine as advertised, a 2019 vintage I was lucky to be given a 2016 vintage. A very good year. Delicious, smooth with a good finish. The first taste is a bit.astringent but after the bottle’s been open a little while, not long, the smooth fruitiness is dominant.
No idea what the 2019 tastes like.
