Rapalino, Bricco Macchia Nebbiolo 2018 Langhe

Full bottle 1,271 g. 
Stony; rose hips and pepper. Fragrant. A tight draw of tannins right into the nub of the wine, as if someone had pulled the drawstring and then tied them into an inextricable knot. Flakes of dried sage and soapy-medicinal dried helichrysum float like dust motes coming to settle on the sour-sweet, wild, red-orange bitter fruit. Mouth-watering, appetising and inviting friction on the finish. (TC)
