2024 Langhe Nebbiolo Baluma

Type: Red Vintage: 2024 Grape variety: Nebbiolo Country: Italy Appellation: Langhe Nebbiolo The Baluma is a wine grown at an altitude of 500 meters, in west facing vineyards. The soils are a mix of clay, tuff and calcareous marl. After macerating for 8 to 10 days on the skins, the wine is matured for six months in 500L oak barrels. You will find ripe strawberries and cherries, combined with a light floral note on the nose, and a juicy palate with just the right amount of tannins to give this wine the structure to balance the fruitiness. On the 2023 vintage: "A fresh and spicy style, the 2023 Langhe Nebbiolo Baluma is ripe with notes of cherry candies, licorice, and pressed roses. The palate is approachable and has fine tannins, with a light savory finish to balance out its otherwise fruity nature. Drink over the near term." 89 pts, JebDunnuck
