The 2021 Nebbiolo Disanfrancesco is a fresh, elegant, and vibrant expression of the grape, capturing the finesse of the vintage and Voerzio’s signature precision. The nose is lifted and perfumed, with aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and wild strawberry, accented by rose petals, licorice, and subtle spice. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with silky tannins and lively acidity, delivering a balance of fruit purity and savory depth. Notes of mineral, earth, and a touch of balsamic complexity emerge on the finish, which is long, refined, and graceful. Accessible in its youth, this wine nonetheless has the structure to evolve beautifully for a decade or more, offering both immediacy and the promise of complexity over time.
Roberto Voerzio is one of Piemonte’s most iconic and uncompromising winemakers, based in La Morra in the heart of Barolo. His philosophy is rooted in meticulous vineyard care and radical yield reduction, producing wines of extraordinary concentration and elegance. While he is best known for his single-vineyard Barolos from legendary crus like Brunate, Cerequio, and La Serra, Voerzio also crafts Nebbiolo in a more accessible style under the Disanfrancesco label. This wine, drawn from younger vines and parcels outside his grand cru holdings, reflects the same obsessive attention to detail and purity, offering a glimpse of Voerzio’s craftsmanship in a more approachable and early-drinking form.
