Ghiomo "Sansteu" Nebbiolo d'Alba 2017
92
Our Score
(9/28/2020) Offering true character and incredible value, the wines of Ghiomo have become a mainstay in our stores. The 2017 Sansteu is 100% Nebbiolo and it tastes like a scaled down Barolo or Barbaresco. Intense flavors of fresh cherry, tanned leather, rose and licorice explode immediately on the palate followed by quintessentially grippy Nebbiolo tannins on the long finish. The balance is exquisite. An amazing wine for a wonderfully reasonable price.

Caves de Donnas "Barmet" Vallee d'Aoste Nebbiolo 2018
90
Our Score
(10/2020) 100% Nebbiolo harvested from mountainous, terraced vineyards northwest of Piedmont spends four months in steel tank and a month in bottle, yielding a fresh, young medium-bodied wine with expressive aromas of ripe cherry, rose petals, crushed rocks and leather. With juicy red berries on the palate supported by its generous acidity, this is a Nebbiolo that is both classic and eminently approachable.

Clendenen Family Vineyards "The Pip" Santa Maria Valley Nebbiolo 2015
A unique Californian Nebbiolo from from Bien Nacido master, Jim Clendenen of Au Bon Climat fame.
Winemaker's Notes
"Sourced from a 16 acre site planted at Bien Nacido Vineyard in 1994. The site is cool, breezy, and on a hillside where the soil is gravelly and shallow - all contributing to the intensity of the fruit. "The Pip" cuvee is an early barrel selection from the "Bricco Buon Natale" Nebbiolo program. This cuvee is aged about 4 years in 500L Hungarian oak puncheons while the "Bricco Buon Natale" typically sees 6-7 years in barrel."

Wonderwall Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara Nebbiolo 2019
90
Our Score
(10/2020) The Nebbiolo grape grows in the Piedmont region of Italy, most famously featured in the wines of Barolo and Barbaresco. Andrew Jones from California's Field Recordings also bottles Nebbiolo under his "Wonderwall" label. The 2019 vintage comes from the Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara appellation and features an image of Lou Gehrig on the label. We're not sure how it all ties together, but we're not too concerned about it. What we are paying attention to is the quality of the wine in this bottle. Juicier than most "Langhe" bottlings, this effort gives red fruits, fresh floral and earth tones, a grippy palate and a bright finish. Try it with sausages and peppers on a Tuesday afternoon and all will be right in the world.

Wine Advocate
(7/23/2020) "Here's another pretty wine in this terrific lineup from Gianfranco Alessandria. The 2018 Langhe Nebbiolo does not lack for fruit, because the bouquet is vibrant and fresh with raspberry, cassis and a touch of sweet peach. There are light shadings of smoke, ash and white pepper. The mouthfeel is lean and streamlined, but this handy Nebbiolo would make a fine partner to a classic pasta with meat ragu. I absolutely recommend this wine."
