Villa Guelpa Description
An averagely warm spring with some cool days characterized the beginning of the season (with unfortunately some unexpected frosts) until the beginning of summer determined by storms and very hot days. This sultry and rainy situation lasted throughout the summer, forcing continuous health surveillance interventions in the vineyards. The high rainfall at the beginning of October caused us some concern for the imminent harvest, which then naturally concluded from the second week of October onwards
Wine Enthusiast: 98 Points
If you love your Nebbiolo elegant, focused and energized, this is your wine. Showing impeccable breeding and class, it opens with enticing scents of wild rose, violet, perfumed berry, camphor and star anise. The vibrant palate features juicy red cherry, crushed strawberry, licorice and salty mineral notes set against a backbone of extremely refined tannins before a mocha close. It's beautifully balanced, with bright acidity. Drink 2024–2039.
