I have a feeling of to our household helps to dramatically increase the per capita consumption of duck in Sweden. This is the result of our weakness for wines that happen to feel comfortable with bold bird and fruktsyrliga sauces. Tonight we will make a favorite in the replay - duck breast with apelsinromsås - that tends to be a nice match to the elegant Nebbiolo. We will compare two different Piedmont appellations from the same vintage - Sells vineyard-lesson: San Sebastiano allo Zoppo 2005 Pelisseros Barbaresco Nubiola 2005th
Lessona San Sebastiano allo Zoppo 2005 (Sella) Lessona is now a vanishing small appellation in the far northern edge of the Piedmont in the Alps, but with vinodlaranor that extends at least 800 years ago. Sella family has grown wine here in 340 years and today they are virtually the only ones to be active within this DOC: n. A blog post about our visits to Gioachino Sella and winemaker Cristiano Garell can be found here .
San Sebastiano allo Zoppo is an old south-west facing vineyard that has been overgrown with vines since 1436th Today's vines have an average age of 75 years and the soil is iron-old and acidic soil with finpulvrig texture and yellow-orange color. It uses 85% Nebbiolo and 15% vespolina which may macerera in 24 days and serve to 36 months in 25 hl-Botti and 12 months on tonneaux . 2005 produced 4000 bottles.
color is no shade darker than you might expect, but transparency is exemplary delicacy. Nasal wall face of rhubarb, rose hips, and a fine minerality in the form of a solid järnfilspånridå. Nebbiolomarkörerna is clear with a tasty little flora - dark violets and dried roses - as well as a distant and dry autumn leaves fire, but everything is so insanely beautiful and well composed that you can almost amazed.
taste carried by acrobatic currant acidity and lands in a fine-grained tanninväv. The fruit and minerality play on each other and intertwine to end up as an intricate macramé, the aftertaste is long and quite intense. The wine is of course very young, and primarily, but gee amalia what good this is!
Barbaresco Nubiola 2005 (Pelissero) family Pelissero has been active in Treiso, as well as in the wine business, the last 50 years and since 1989 is the son of Giorgio helm. It has about 30 hectares of crops including all the regional grape varieties and produces a total of about 120000 bottles annually.
Nubiola is one of the simpler wines of Barbaresco portfolio and made a kind of "semi-modern" style with the help of rotofermentorer and storage on both Botti and used barriques. We tried Nubiola 2005 first time a year ago .
Here we have a denser and darker wine in the glass. The scent is impressive - bigger, darker and drab with tar, asphalt, paint buckets and morello. Rich and charming nose but after Sells polished gem feels like a bautasten.
Some of the perceived clumsiness of smell, will again in the mouth where a rather coarse tanninstruktur is prominent, the acids are of medium height and dark fruit and ripe. The wine is not in any way out of balance, but along with the brackets ballerina from Lessona feels fairly undefined.
Ducks thrive fish in water with Sells San Sebastiano allo Zoppo, a magnificent ankackompanjatör fresh minerality and perfectly balanced acidity and tannins to cope with the fat, sweetness and acidity of the food. Even after dinner, we see us any time stick your nose in Lessona-glass.
San Sebastiano allo Zoppo 2005 buy in Wine Wise for 259 DKK, Stefan Jensen sends now with FedEx to Sweden. Pelisseros Nubiola in vintage 2006 in Gobivin for the facile price 128.95 DKK - wittily worse, at least if you compare with SB / Moestue who want to SEK 300 for the exact same wine ...
