2020 Vigneti Costacurta Tintaunita

The stunning new vintage from Guido.  A Nebbiolo dominant blend from 70 year old vines in Ghemme & Sizzano (Alto Piemonte).  Just like with the 2019 edition, the quality price ratio here is outrageous. 

Sealed under screwcap - will age but delicious right now.

17/20 - Jancis Robinson (Walter Speller) - "Youthful mid ruby. A pretty, perfumed red-fruit nose with Nebbiolo’s red beetroot and raspberry notes. Lots of ripeness but not heavy. Sappy, ripe red fruit, just medium-bodied and with long, powdery tannins. Appetising. I would serve this slightly cool at 15 °C." (WS)

93 Points, Tom Kline (The Wine Pilot) - "Nebbiolo dominant, with croatina and vespolina in support, all coming from 70-year-old vines on glacial soils in the Ghemme and Sizzano sub regions of Alto Piemonte. Quality kirsch, subtle tomato bush, decaying leaves, tilled earth. Lovely savouriness here, and a soft and supple palate of medium body, carrying cherry, dried rose, dried herbs, tomato leaf. Gossamer tannins and a latent lick of acidity bring structure and gentle length. There's a softness and lightness of touch here, with nice complexity and eminent drinkability."
