Giacomo Borgogno & Figli Langhe Nebbiolo 2024 (750ml) *

Nebbiolo grown in the Langhe hills of Piedmont, this bottling from Giacomo Borgogno & Figli offers the grape in a more approachable register than its Barolo and Barbaresco cousins, without the extended aging those wines require. The 2024 vintage is a Langhe Nebbiolo, a category built for earlier drinking, and the varietal shows its usual hallmarks here: pale garnet color that belies real grip, firm tannins, and the perfume of red cherry, rose, and dried herbs that makes Nebbiolo so recognizable.
