Langhe Nebbiolo DOC Roberto Voerzio Disanfrancesco 2016

The wine

This Nebbiolo is aged for 18 months in oak barrels. It is a rich, complex, full-bodied cuvée, boasting delicate tartness, velvety tannins, and a long finish. It is aged for several months, which makes it a very appealing wine for cellaring.

About the Producer Roberto Voerzio

Roberto Voerzio, who belongs to a winemaking family, decided to go it alone in 1986 on a 2-hectare plot on the family vineyard. His domaine has gradually acquired a fine reputation for its quality wines, which offer a perfect combination of power and elegance. He is now one of the Barolo big hitters. Accomplished wine grower and skilful vintner Roberto Voerzio specialises in high-density planting and very low yields with a view to distilling the quintessence of his terroirs. He is known notably for creating the very opposite of powerful, extracted and woody wines. Voerzio reflects the ethos of combining modernity and tradition and his bottles are iconic and authentic.
