Luciano Sandrone Valmaggiore Nebbiolo d’Alba 2019

Stunningly perfumed, with dried flowers, cherry and bramble fruits. The shape of Valmaggiore is very different to the Barolo’s, sleek and linear, caressed by sweet and tart red fruits, flowers and pink peppercorns. Great purity and very fine. Waters Wine Co

The 2019 Nebbiolo d’Alba Valmaggiore is a bright, sculpted wine that is going to need a few years to come into its own. Bright acids and firm tannins are a bit present today, so a few years of cellaring are a must. The Sandrone Valmaggiore has a track record of aging well. I expect that will be the case here as well. 93 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The Luciano Sandrone 2019 Nebbiolo d’Alba Valmaggiore is a beautiful expression of this mighty red grape from the north of Italy. The Valmaggiore vineyard in Roero offers a spicy and accessible interpretation with plenty of wild cherry and blue flower. This vintage also offers pretty layer of crushed white peppercorn. You get terrific complexity and a very food-friendly ensemble at a competitive price. 93 points, Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate
