Ethereal and fine bouquet with hints of wilted violets and spices, delicate nuances of strawberries and almond blossom. Deep, warm and rich on the palate, the tannins wonderfully harmonious, an elegant, very pleasant bitter note on the long final. SUPERIORE.DE

"Negri's 2018 Valtellina Superiore Quadrio is a soft, easygoing wine to drink now and over the next few years. Crushed red berry fruit, flowers, mint, sage and a kick of orange peel all grace this open-knit Valtellina Superiore." Vinous

Elegant Nebbiolo from the Langhe, not hyper-concentrated, but endowed with a wonderful clarity: Fine, warm, harmonious, with ripe fruit and aromas of dark berries, herbs and vanilla. Racy, persistent finish with well-proportioned, fresh acidity and firm tannin. SUPERIORE.DE

"Sometimes you need simplicity in your wine from Italy's Piedmont, and this bottle delivers exactly that. The Ascheri 2019 Langhe Nebbiolo S. Giacomo, a blend of Nebbiolo with 15% Syrah, is fresh and fruity. Bright cassis fruit and cherry segue to blue flower and a touch of raw licorice root. There are no extra bells or whistles on this genuine and honest wine to enjoy with a simple focaccia and speck." Robert Parker

A Nebbiolo for purists. Pine resin, dried fruit and ethereal spices on the nose. On the palate, we find lots of juicy cherry alongside sweet plum, plus robust tannins and a fine mineral acidity. This drop calls for a strong food companion and is a great pleasure in this combination! SUPERIORE.DE

The Nebbiolo grapes for the Inferno Superiore come from the Calvario, Sopragironi, Sottogironi and Ca Rossa subzones. They grow there in southern exposure on terraced slopes on poor, sandy soils. Rich, bright carmine red. Interesting aroma spectrum of spices, wild berries, liquorice and mint. Very harmonious on the palate, the tannin very well integrated and the Nebbiolo fruit and acid component present until the respectable finish. SUPERIORE.DE

This Nebbiolo comes from the vineyards of the Inferno (hell). The mountains owe their name to the steep slopes and the scorching summer temperatures that prevail there. Pure bouquet of red fruits, underlined by a hint of tobacco, hints of mineral notes on the palate, plus fine tannins, perfectly integrated into an appealing acidity framework. A very authentic, classic and straightforward wine. SUPERIORE.DE

Full-bodied, appealing interpretation of the grape variety. On the nose, a colourful potpourri of dried berries, violets, chocolate and hints of fresh tar. Firm on the palate, the well-structured tannins guide this hearty wine into a tasty, long finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Very pleasant, sweet raspberry and red-berry character here with a hint of creamy acidity and light tannins. Easygoing, tasty palate with a light firmness to the finish, but the sweet fruit pushes through." James Suckling

Sassella Le Tense is a silky and polished wine with wild berries, blueberries, bitter almond, crushed rock, ash and mild spice. It has all those ethereal and finely balanced flavours of a Nebbiolo-based Valtellina wine, but they are presented in a slightly more direct and approachable way. The firm tannins are enveloped by a beautiful fruit, and the medium-long finish ends harmoniously. A beautiful wine from the far north of Lombardy. SUPERIORE.DE

Montegrilli, a pure Nebbiolo, exudes wonderful, powerful fruit aromas in its fragrance and on the palate, plus a little rose petal with a hint of vanilla. A delicious wine between tradition and modernity with the typical elegance of Cogno wines. SUPERIORE.DE

The bouquet expresses all the complexity of the Nebbiolo: dried flowers, fruit, liquorice and tobacco. The taste feels as soft as velvet, in which alcohol, tannin and acidity interact very harmoniously and linger appealingly. SUPERIORE.DE

Ruby red with orange reflections, elegant bouquet of spices and liquorice. Silky, warm with sweet tannin on the palate, then ripe fruit and a hint of vanilla in taste. A serious, powerful and well-structured Nebbiolo. SUPERIORE.DE

Intense color, a fresh bouquet of red fruits and sweet floral notes, tannic taste, nice harmony between acidity and alcohol, medium weight, persistent finish. For years our price-performance winner among the Nebbioli from the Langhe! SUPERIORE.DE

The concept is as simple as it is ingenious: Christoph Künzli wanted to create a Nebbiolo that is fresh and easy to drink, whose beguiling sweetness and richness is convincing right up to the last sip, and which nevertheless typically and unmistakably represents Alto Piemonte. The convincing result is fresh, with a rich bouquet of berries and flowers, crisp and velvety in the mouth. Be sure to enjoy a little chilled and you will be surprised how quickly the bottle is empty! SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2020 Nebbiolo is exquisite. Bright, floral and wonderfully vibrant, the 2020 bristles with energy right out of the gate. Crushed red berry fruit, flowers, cinnamon, mint and licorice all run through this deep, wonderfully nuanced Nebbiolo from Le Piane." Vinous

Don't be surprised: This expressive, fresh red could also be a rosé and in addition it has a very fine, barely noticeable mousseux. With these qualities, this serious fun-maker is a wonderfully refreshing and at the same time extremely tasty Nebbiolo, which with its expressive bouquet of crushed raspberries and strawberries is an ideal food companion or "just" spring or summer wine that can be enjoyed solo without any problems. For us, the wonderfully drinkable Piedmontese answer to the high-quality, dry Lambruschi of Emilia. Pure enthusiasm! SUPERIORE.DE

"This was one of my favorite discovery wines from last year, and it sure is a pleasure to circle back to this G.D. Vajra 2020 Langhe Nebbiolo Claré J.C. today. Showing a luminous and bright ruby color, the bouquet shyly reveals wild cherry fruit and cassis. In a second moment, you taste bitter almond, candied lilac and hints of fresh garden herb or rosemary blossom. It's hard to image such a young wine tasting so good at this unbelievable price." Robert Parker

Perbacco shows in the fresh bouquet first slightly leafy notes, then lots of cherry. On the palate nicely round, lots of ripe fruit, of cherries and red berries, underpinned by fine-grained tannin, long finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2019 Langhe Nebbiolo Perbacco is a fabulous introduction to the vintage. Rich, sumptuous and layered, with terrific depth. There's real texture and depth here. Crushed raspberry, mint and blood orange. Over the last few years vineyard sources have been upgraded, and it shows, big time. Most of this fruit is from Barolo-designated vineyards." Vinous

Terre da Vino's colourful Barbaresco La Casa in Collina smells interestingly of wilted flowers, sour cherries and tobacco. The taste is extremely well-balanced with excellent persistence. SUPERIORE.DE

"Clear ruby red with a lightening rim. Delicate herbal scent adorns the nose, of rosehip and spruce shoots, plus pickled currant and a little fumé. Draws gracefully across the tongue, finely woven tannin interplaying with juicy acidity, compact, draws crisply into the medium-long finish." Falstaff

"Perfumed and fresh with strawberry and orange-peel character that comes through on the palate with medium body, light tannins and a fresh finish. Hints of cedar. Fresh and delicious now." James Suckling

Classic Nebbiolo from, among others, the now not so young vines of the cru site Starderi, which stands up to many a Barbaresco: Bright intense ruby with garnet rim, a lot of fresh, clear berry fruit in the elegant bouquet, accentuated acidity on the palate, which then gives way to the beautiful fruit and the well-proportioned tannin. SUPERIORE.DE

"Fresh and floral with cherries and nuts on the nose and palate. Medium to light body. Crisp finish." James Suckling

Clear, precise Nebbiolo with a bouquet of ripe cherries and subtle notes of tobacco. Polished on the palate, expansive and with silky tannin, the juicy fruit is straightforward and long. Pure and sophisticated drinking pleasure! SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2020 Langhe Nebbiolo is a gorgeous wine for drinking now and over the next few years. Crushed red berry, spice, licorice and mint give this mid-weight, silky Nebbiolo a good deal of aromatic nuance to match its understated personality." Vinous

A perfect introduction to the impressive craft of a 27-year-old winemaker who has already made her way to the top. Here, Nebbiolo comes into the glass in purezza, the ageing partly in 500 Liters tonneaux and stainless steel interprets it - according to Giulia Negri's vision - unadulterated and without distractions.

Bright ruby red, on the nose small red berries, damp forest floor and a discreet note of violets. Impressively elegant and supple on the palate, the Nebbiolo always remains taut and cool. In the final, the dark fruit beguiles with a freshness and juiciness that never seems opulent, but carries the tension into the long finish. SUPERIORE.DE

The grapes come exclusively from the single vineyard San Pietro, and since the 2018 vintage, part of the wine has been vinified in amphorae. Berries, liquorice and deep red fruits on the nose. Finely woven and very precise structure, personality and class on the palate. Sheer elegance and Clerico pleasure without waiting for further ageing. SUPERIORE.DE

"Lustrous and just mid ruby. Subtle, spicy cherry nose with black-pepper tingle. Succulent fruit palate with fine coating tannins. Savoury sweet fruit on the finish. Hugely appealing." Jancis Robinson
