2023 Little Reddie Colbinabbin Nebbiolo Refosco
Coming from five separate plots on the one hill - Colbinabbin, this is a cracking wine, reflecting an absolutely cracking vintage for Little Reddie.
A pretty style, that is perfectly mid-light weight. Notes of raspberry, loganberry, fresh rose petal and a little touch of mint. Nebbiolo and Refosco varietes are in perfect harmony here - the Nebbiolo adds the refreshing acid and aromatic properties and the Refosco comes through in aces softening the bracing tannins Nebbiolo can give you, and making those red fruits plush, and opulent. Oof.
