Montforte d'Alba, Cuneo, Piedmont, ItalyThe Ginestra cru is 100 per cent select Nebbiolo from southerly exposed vines on growing on marly, calcareous terrain. Look for a tarry, coffee, spicy clove nose with cherry and strawberry jam nose. Rich, ripe and concentrated with ripe tannins. Vanilla, coffee, spciy, tarry, plum jam flavours with a peppery, cherry, clove finish. Big, long, ripe style that will improve for the next 15 years.
