Pecchenino Botti Langhe Nebbiolo 2021 (750ml)
Ranked #73 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2022
Bright ruby red color. The bouquet on the nose is very elegant, with intense aromas of cherry, violet, raspberry and black currant, together with licorice and balsamic sensations. The sip confirms the elegance and aromas perceived on the nose, is characterized by a good freshness, medium body, and a long fruity finish.
Pair with pasta, roasted red meats and aged cheeses.
Rated 90 Points by Wine Spectator
Striking a balance between ripe cherry, strawberry and floral flavors and a supple texture, this red is supported by a firm structure, lingering with earth and eucalyptus accents.
Rated 90 Points by Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The Pecchenino 2021 Langhe Nebbiolo Botti has a very sprightly and pretty bouquet with cherry blossom, wild rose and lavender sachet. Those easy floral aromas cede to pencil shaving, dried ginger, baking spice and licorice. This is a lean-bodied and informal Piedmont red that packs a strong aromatic punch.
Rated 90 Points by James Suckling
Fresh and creamy, with linear tannins and dried-strawberry, orange-peel and cedar undertones. Light and fine tannins.
