2021 Nebbiolo d’Alba, Sterma, La Bioca, Piedmont

£19.25 inc. VAT

A superb ‘Barolo’ style red from the superb producer la Bioca. The Sterma vineyard lies just outside the boundary of Barolo so it’s the same grape, soil and climate but not the same price!

A perfumed nose of rose, black cherry and a touch of leather. Silky on the palate but with excellent grip and soft tannins. This is drinking beautifully now but will age for another 2-3 years.

“From a single vineyard just outside the Barolo zone, you’re getting a lot for your money in this unfiltered gem. Classic tar and roses profile, bolstered by vibrant orange freshness, sour cherry sappiness, delicately dusty tannins and a lingering sweet raspberry edge.” 92 points, Tina Gellie, Decanter

Great with a pork chop.
