About this Item

Langhe Nebbiolo 2010
4 (1 x 4) 750ml
From the same La Morra estate, the Langhe Nebbiolo is sourced from the S. Francesco Fontanazza vineyard - a wine Galloni described as giving many Barolos a run for their money. The 2010, from one of the great classic Langhe vintages, shows the inner perfume, freshness and silky structure that make Voerzio's entry-level wines among the most compelling in their category. Antonio Galloni from Vinous gave it a rating of 90.

Provenance

The late David Brice was a respected wine connoisseur, collector and co-founder of Brice and Burnett – The Fine Wine Specialists (formerly Wine Cellar). His lifelong passion for wine from all corners of the world wine, and generosity, helped develop a culture of fine wine in South Africa and beyond. Always with value and authenticity in mind, the collection spans a wide range of styles from leading producers and diverse regions. The wines were professionally imported under refrigeration and carefully stored at Brice and Burnett (formerly Wine Cellar) thereafter. Many of the producers are not available in South Africa and provide an excellent buying opportunity.

Critics Ratings

“Readers who want an early glimpse at the 2010s should check out Roberto Voerzio's 2010 Langhe Nebbiolo S. Francesco Fontanazza, a wine that will give many Barolos a run for their money. Freshly cut flowers, mint, tar and black cherries are supported by firm, yet silky tannins. The 2010 is all about grace and inner perfume, two qualities it has in spades. This is a drop-dead gorgeous wine from Voerzio.” - Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 90/100 (May 2013)
