"Bright ruby-hued, the 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo shows off notes of ripe red berries, candied roses, and sweet tea. Medium-bodied, this one's a crowd pleaser, with all its components moving with ease to the palate, An inviting wine with a supple texture, it will continue to drink well over the next several years."

"Just bottled, the 2023 Langhe Nebbiolo is terrific. A blend of La Spinetta's four sites (Starderi, Valeirano, Gallina and Campè), the Langhe Nebbiolo is an excellent introduction to the Spinetta range. Black cherry, plum, chocolate, licorice, lavender and dried herbs are all amplified in a succulent, opulent Langhe Nebbiolo that over-delivers."
