La Contea Di Neive

Ca' Rozzeria

Neive Langhe Nebbiolo

Thursday - back to wine drinking! Take that work week. With a spritz if the Coravin, half a decanted bottle, here I come.
Smells of stress from a week of clients with their networks, and crushed dried berry blend baking between some river stone.

The initial wave of relief that flows over me, is relaxing and introspective. It also tastes like unripened fruit, rock struggled vine, persimmon and black cherry.
Like the emotions I have collected, the bitter tannins have tannins of their own. Good thing I like tannins, both in wines and in clients.

Oddero

Barolo Nebbiolo 2010

Loved this Barbaresco coming from a Barolo producer. One of the few who can vinify it in barolo becaise of historical roots. Lovely! Gallina cru is the best! #neive #barbaresco #oddero #lamorra 2011 vintage — 10 years ago

Punset

Neive Red Blend

Dolcetto, Barbera, Nebbiolo blend that's surprisingly approachable now. Gracious yet firm. Purple flowers, dried fruits, potpourri of spices. Would have been even better with food, but will absolutely buy again. — 10 years ago

Giorgio Pelissero

Nubiola Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2013

Piedmont wine tasting: light translucent ruby, orange tinges, bricking at rim, prominent tearing • slow to open up, dried red cherry, rose petals, tar, barnyard notes, thyme • very tannic, 14% ABV, somewhat astringent finish * made from blend of Nebbiolo from six different small lots in the three villages of Treiso, Barbaresco, and Neive • would recommend a decant of 90 minutes to 2 hours — 6 years ago
