The 2007 Langhe La Villa (Barbera/Nebbiolo) is a seriously compelling and utterly delicious wine. The Nebbiolo complements the juicy Barbera fruit by adding a touch of verve, freshness and aromatic complexity that gives the wine an extra level of focus over the Larigi in this vintage. The 2007 La Villa is harmonious and impeccably balanced all the way through to the long finish. Simply put, this is a spellbinding wine from Altare. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2027.
