Winemaker's Notes
Offers up generous fruit along with menthol, spices and hard candy, showing notable intensity while retaining an essentially mid-weight style. Strong, intense and powerful when young, complex and elegant with age.
Pairs well with hearty stews, wild game, roasted red meats and sharp, aged cheeses.
Blend: 100% Nebbiolo

The 2020 Perbacco is lights out! From the moment the cork is pulled you will be smitten with aromas of cherry, wild herbs, dried rose and anise enticing you to the glass. The wine delivers fresh and clear red-berried fruit snuggled with sweet and savory spices finishing with crunchy acidity begging you to take that next sip.

The 2020 Langhe Nebbiolo Perbacco is another terrific entry-level wine from Vietti. In this vintage, the Perbacco is especially fine. Sweet dried cherry, herbs, mint, crushed flowers, anise and orange peel grace this striking, alluring Nebbiolo. There's tons of depth and sheer pedigree, things that have not always been present in recent editions. For years, Perbacco was a very serious wine - some might say almost too serious - for its peer group. Then Vietti pivoted to a simpler style. With the 2020, Perbacco seems to once again be a wine that overdelivers, big time. Quite frankly, the 2020 Perbacco is more satisfying than many Barbarescos and Barolos I tasted this year.

A translucent medium ruby, the 2020 Langhe Nebbiolo Perbacco is fresh with floral spice, rose petal, raspberry ripe, and wet stone. Medium-bodied, it has ultra-fine tannins, approachable fruit, and an elegant mouthfeel. Graceful and easy-drinking, this would be an outstanding wine to introduce Pinot Noir drinkers to Nebbiolo. It will drink well now or over the next 5-7 years.
