2022 Monferrato Nebbiolo DOC Robur

The nose is immediately inviting, opening with gentle spice and ripe fruit, where fig and plum come through. It’s elegant and expressive, a profile that feels very much in tune with Nebbiolo’s more refined side. On the palate, the wine delivers exactly what the aromas promise: balanced tannins, good natural tension, and a composed finish. Less austere than its Langhe cousins, this Monferrato Nebbiolo DOC leans into approachability, offering a refined, expressive take on the variety that drinks beautifully right now.
