Sorpasso Carema Nebbiolo 2019

$60

"The new kids on the block are up to plenty of good with this fresh, lively and herb-inflected little beauty.  Morgan, the Italian Portfolio Manager at Polaner Selections, first described it to me as, stylistically, lying somewhere between Ferrando's White Label and Black Label Riserva, and I think that's a great way to express it.  Its backbone is a bit firmer and more apparent than the Bianca and on the whole, it's wound up a bit tighter, but it expresses the gentile elegance of Carema wonderfully.  The future of the DOC is bright!" - Matt Franco Vintage: 2019 Country: Italy Region: Piedmont Appellation: Carema Grapes: Nebbiolo, Neyret, Ner d'Ala Farming: Organic Drink: Now-2030

The 2019 Carema is a gorgeous, deep wine. It is also incredibly young to the point that the aromatics are quite closed. Bright red-toned fruit, blood orange, mint, crushed rocks, rose petal and cinnamon struggle to emerge. There's plenty of intensity, especially for Carema, but readers will have to be patient. The 2019 needs a ton of time. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, February 2024)
