The 2007 Nebbiolo d’Alba Ca Veja shows the typical profile of Nebbiolo from this part of Piedmont in its sweet red cherries, flowers, spices and sweet herbs. That said, this is an impressively constituted, rich Nebbiolo bursting with texture, class and elegance. Sweet roses, licorice and minerals linger on the close. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2017.
Readers will find much to admire in these gorgeous wines from Paitin, a small grower based in Neive.
