The 2021 Alberto Oggero Roero Le Coste Nebbiolo is a beautifully refined and classically styled Nebbiolo from the sandy hills of Roero in Piemonte. Sourced from the historic Le Coste vineyard in Santo Stefano Roero, the wine combines the fragrance and finesse typical of Roero with deeper structure and complexity from older vines and clay-rich soils. The nose reveals red cherry, dried rose and wild strawberry layered alongside orange peel, dried herbs and subtle earthy spice, giving the wine impressive lift and elegance.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with fine tannins, bright natural acidity and beautifully pure red berry fruit. Layers of cherry, savoury herbs and mineral tension flow through the palate with excellent balance and freshness, finishing long, dry and finely structured in a distinctly traditional Nebbiolo style.
Ben’s Recommendation:
The 2021 Alberto Oggero Roero Le Coste Nebbiolo is a wonderfully expressive and elegant Nebbiolo — savoury, perfumed and beautifully balanced with classic Piedmont character. Perfect with mushroom risotto, roast duck, truffle pasta, charcuterie or aged hard cheeses. Enjoy now with decanting or cellar through 2038+.
