Visit the upper Piedmont (gattinara, ghemme, boca, lessona, bramaterra) and the Valtellina, you will find the Nebbiolos of the future. If in the Langa they do not find a solution for the heat and drought in about ten years, the Nebbiolo di Barolo and Barbaresco will stop giving great wines. This is why Roberto Conterno, the father of Barolo Monfortino, bought the Nervi estate in Gattinara.

interesting post thank you

I appreciate your videos and explanations. You provide the best descriptions and explanations of the wines and their grape for me.

I’m just starting my wine knowledge journey and I’ve been binging this channel. These videos are so informative, thank you!

Loved this video! You made it so easy to understand

Another great video Julian. I always learn something watching your video, thank you. 👍👏😊

Great topic and well done video Julien. Salute!

Excellent! Very enjoyable and useful content. Great job, thank you!

Excellent! I loved your explanation. Thank you!

The first Barolo I ever had (I don’t remember the vineyard or the vintage) was way too young. I expected to be dazzled but was a little disappointed. It was super tannic and the fruit was kind of hidden. It did get better with aeration, but I later learned that it had not sufficiently aged. Whereas, the first Barbaresco I had was delightful and much more approachable. I’ve been enjoying some 2009 Barolos of late, and they’re just coming into their own. Sadly, I’m all out of Barbarescos.😉

Thanks for sharing this video about Piemonte. We run a Piemonte Wine Club, let us know next time you're in our area and we'll do a video together!

Thank you for a wonderfully informative video! I did miss some info on the Nebbiolo blends with Vaspolina. I would love to hear your thoughts on the usage of Vasponlina in Piedmonte! 🍷 Cin-cin! 🇮🇹🐝👑

excellent!!i often wonder what makes the gaja wines so superior to the other barolo and barbarescos! what do they do differently?

I like both. The difference between the two is about 11 miles as the crow flies. Marketing favors the wines of Barolo as far as pricing goes but the nebbiolo grapes used for both are indistinguishable for most people (in my humble opinion) and I've been there and drank many iterations of both DOC and DOCG classifications....

You say they use big slovenian oak barrels, its slavonian oak from croatia. The names are simmilar thats why its maybe confuesing. Thanks for great show

Nebbia or fog in reference to the lately ripening grape around these towns in Lange's region. That's a huge wine area not just those towns. Alba and Asti with Barbera and Dolcettos, Nebbiolo wines all around. Buy its very difficult to grow there too sounds like no lol. You wanna research good years, 10 years old is a must. It's a big money wine!!

Another excellent video. I think I would be best starting with the Barbaresco, I like fruity well rounded approachable wines. Separately, I tried a Cabernet sauvignon the other night, I think for the first time. Both hubby and I got a headache. Do you think this is because it was oaked? Or something else? Normally we drink an Australian Merlot with no issues.

Definitely NOT due to oak! ppl report headache often supposedly due to sulphites (natural or added preservatives in some wines). 90% chance tho your headache was actually caused by being dehydrated while or after drinking wine!
