Tasting Notes: We’re still debating if these Nebbiolo grapes went through some rigorous voice trainings, because this wine sings! Another standout favorite at Cream, the wine is perfect for a dinner party and family reunion alike—bring it to any gathering to convert both wine geeks and vino newbies into believers if the Boniperti gospel.

Winemaking Notes: Fruit is picked by hand during the first two weeks of October. The Nebbiolo grapes are destemmed and gently mashed. Fermentation occurs spontaneously with native yeast in steel barrels. The wine ages entirely in stainless steel tanks for 8-9 months, with an additional 4 months in bottle.

    The 2019 Carlin is redolent of crushed red berry fruit, iron, white pepper, mint, licorice and dried flowers. Deep and layered in the glass, with tons of savory character, this midweight Nebbiolo over delivers big time.
