"Totally unique and captivating, as you’d expect, you can smell what is to follow, which is an astonishingly sophisticated marriage of fruit and structure – acidity and fine, fine tannins in sync, side by side, spicy, lingering, perfectly designed for the table where it is an astute gastronomic partner. Fabulous value as well."  96 Points - Wine Pilot - Tony Love

"From Giorgio Sordo this is Gioso, an alt-range from that producer. This has some mettle and thrust. It’s a blend of sites, as I believe, and hangs out in big, older Slavonian oak barrels. This is a ripper. Also, this is not the actual label, but you get the gist. It’s got that almost glass-shard tension and gloss, so slender, a succulence that leaves a distinct pucker and a mouth-watering freshness. Tannins ripple beautifully, ultra fine, indeed; I couldn’t quite believe the price and status of the wine for this high quality tension, minerality and general persistence. Whoa. Tart, just ripe red cherry, rose hip tea, hazelnut savouriness, black tea and a curious elderflower, floral lift with a faint sooty spice and clove character underlying – lots and lots on. It’s so fine boned and restrained. Could be, likely is, the best, ‘entry level’ Langhe nebb I have seen. Blown away."  94 Points - The Wine Front - Mike Bennie
