Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: full-bodied, high tannin, high acidity, dry
A classic expression of Nebbiolo from Barbaresco, showing the grape's signature combination of firm, grippy tannins and bright, cutting acidity alongside aromas of dried cherry and tar with floral rose hints. Villadoria is a mid-tier commercial producer, so expect a straightforward, approachable style rather than a complex single-vineyard rendition. The NV designation suggests a blended, ready-to-drink interpretation that softens some of Barbaresco's more austere edges.
Serving: Serve at 16–18 °C.
