The 2024 Cantina del Pino Langhe Nebbiolo is a beautifully expressive 100% Nebbiolo from vineyards in Barbaresco and Neive, crafted by one of the region's most respected family estates. Produced from younger vines and parcels that share the same exceptional terroir as the estate's Barbaresco wines, it is aged for eight months in stainless steel to preserve its vibrant fruit and varietal purity. The nose is fragrant and elegant, revealing red cherry, raspberry and wild berries layered with violet, subtle tobacco and a hint of spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with fine tannins, bright acidity and impressive balance. Juicy red berry fruit is complemented by savoury notes, delicate minerality and classic Nebbiolo structure, leading to a long, fresh finish with remarkable finesse. Approachable in its youth yet unmistakably Piedmontese, it is an outstanding introduction to the Cantina del Pino style.
Ben’s Recommendation:
The 2024 Cantina del Pino Langhe Nebbiolo pairs beautifully with charcuterie, mushroom risotto, pasta with ragù, roast pork, grilled lamb or aged Parmigiano Reggiano. Enjoy now with a short decant, or cellar confidently through 2035 as its complexity and elegance continue to develop.
