The palate is brilliantly fresh with a soft chalkiness

persistent bubbles carry aromas of green apple

Grapes used for this bottling come from the Cima Corgo region of the Douro valley

An organic Cabernet Sauvignon blend from high-altitude sites in Paardeberg

and rich orangey citrus so very intense and long

Oddero, Barolo 2020 Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte The palate is brilliantly freshThis wine has a markedly lees y nose, but there is brooding and quite pure cherry fruit with a hints of liquorice, dried flowers and truffles, and a flattering note of new oak. Purity of fruit on the palate comes with sappy integrated acidity and loads of grainy, but well behaved tannins. It is firmly structured Nebbiolo after all, but the tannins are backed up by plenty of fruit.
