The 2008 Nebbiolo d’Alba Occhetti shows terrific balance and a classy, understated personality from start to finish. Classic Nebbiolo red fruits, crushed flowers, spices and licorice are some of the notes that flow from this expressive wine. This is a very representative Nebbiolo from Alba. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2016.
This is an impressive set of wines from Prunotto. From top to bottom, every wine in this lineup is well worth considering. It would be nice to see Prunotto take their outstanding Baroli and Barbareschi to the next level. Given the quality of their vineyards and the significant resources of the Antinori family these should be truly profound wines.
