遠景珍藏內比奧羅干紅葡萄酒

點擊次數：5881

The 2006 Riserva Nebbiolo was made by Chris Ringland. It has a lovely nose of cherry blossom, cassis, and road tar. Elegant on the palate with good depth, savory flavors, and the structure to evolve for 2-3 years, this impeccably balanced wine will offer prime drinking from 2012 to 2018.

Most of Longview’s portfolio proved competent but uninspiring. Not so for the 2005 Nebbiolo Riserva produced for Longview by the renowned grizzled vigneron Chris Ringland. Dark ruby-colored, it delivers a superb perfume of tar, roses, and cherry, with just a hint of oak. Intense, focused, and layered, it has beautifully integrated oak, tannin, and acidity, and a long, pure finish. Nebbiolo has no track record in South Australia but this gorgeous effort should evolve for 5-7 years and drink well from 2013 to 2025.
