Two red wines from Piemonte

Just because there are great Nebbiolo wine from Piemonte such as Barolo and Barbaresco doesn't mean that all Nebbiolo wines from Piemonte are great. Because if Nebbiolo are planted in the wrong parts and in the wrong soil then Nebbiolo wines can be quite tasteless. The producer Madonna Dell'Uva has the Nebbiolo wine of vintage 2015. The ABV is 13%. The taste is a bit sour with some black currants. This wine is lacking something.

Next wine is from producer Borgogno which is a big producer in Piemonte and their red wine Langhe Rosso is their first wine I had the chance to try from them. The vintage is 2016 and the ABV is 13%. It consists of the grapes Barbera, Dolcetto, Freisa and Merlot. I get a lot of red fruits on the nose. The taste is of cherries, red fruits and some spices. A very nice wine and goes with food very well as well as a stand alone wine.
