"The 2023 Langhe Nebbiolo is a delight. Deep, layered and dynamic, the 2023 is terrific. It possesses notable character and tons of style. Crushed flowers, bright red berry fruit, mint and a kick of orange peel all run through this finely-cut, chiseled Langhe Nebbiolo from Cigliuti."

"The 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo is one of the best Nebbiolos I have tasted in this vintage so far. The warm, dry vintage added a bit of mid-palate richness, but there are no angular contours here, suggesting these vines handled the heat well. White pepper, flowers, mint and orange peel add striking brightness to complement the red Nebbiolo fruit. The 2022 is positively stellar."

"A ripe red/ruby color, the 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo is bright with aromas of cherry candies, wild balsamic herbs, tarragon, and spearmint. Medium-bodied on the palate, with ripe, present tannins and a broad-shouldered feel, it's going to do well with another few months in bottle. Drink over the next 4-5 years."

"The 2021 Langhe Nebbiolo emerges from young vines in Serraboella planted in 2017 when the Dolcetto came out. Crushed flowers, sweet red cherry fruit, mint, chalk and white pepper lend aromatic brilliance to this mid-weight, nervy Langhe Nebbiolo. The 2021 is all class. Don't miss it."

"Rich and dense, featuring black cherry, black currant and white pepper aromas and flavors. This is both fresh and silky in texture, with the fruit flavors lingering on the aftertaste. Drink now through 2026. 400 cases made, 40 cases imported."
