From young vines that could be classified as Barbaresco, the Francesco Versio 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo is a structured expression with pretty depth of fruit and concentration. Indeed, the chalky tannins stand out here and are definitely a step above your standard Langhe Nebbiolo. They are surrounded by soft tones of black fruit, spice and crushed flower. The wine ages in oak for a quick 12 months (whereas the Barbaresco stays in oak for an additional nine months).
