The 2007 Nebbiolo d’Alba Valmaggiore offers up crushed flowers, red berries, licorice and tar in a pretty, perfumed expression of this vineyard in Roero. A sweet, ethereal finish rounds things out nicely. Grimaldi’s Valmaggiore should continue to drink well for at least a few years. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2014.
