Here's something that will rock your world & a be fabulous talking point at the next dinner party because it is a bit different!. A cracking Nebbiolo from the famous cool climate region - Adelaide Hills. (Nowhere near Snow Town)

You know you're in safe hand with our negociant Chris Hill Reserve ranges and this one is sure to keep everyone bubbling along and happy. The wine a s awhile is typical for this variety and with 6 years maturity, (Yes 6 YEARS) this wine is now a luminescent light to medium red with a slight rusty orange rim.

The wonderful bouquet is an intense mix of varietal and aged characters. It has lifted floral aromas of violets and rose petal with wild herbs, truffle and tobacco hints following. Nebbiolo is a late ripening variety famed for its strong gripping tannin and firm acidity. With extended maturation this wine has developed distinctive “tar and roses” complexity as well as savoury flavours of smoked meats, leather and spice. It’s an intriguing wine with character and pedigree. That is why it is better cellared and stored for at least 3+ years before you get close to cracking a bottle.

If you've never tried a Nebbiolo before then this is a great place to start and dare I say it enjoy for a fraction of the old world price. Perfect for solid platters of antipasto all the way through to game meats and braised dishes. Salute!
