Margherita Otto Langhe Nebbiolo 2023
Vintage Character
Margherita Otto Langhe Nebbiolo 2023 comes from the Langhe DOC in Piedmont, where Nebbiolo finds one of its most articulate homes on the region’s calcareous marl and sandstone-rich hills. The 2023 vintage is expected to show the grape’s perfume and energy clearly, with the growing season shaping a wine that leans toward freshness and immediacy rather than sheer power, making it an especially appealing Langhe Nebbiolo for drinkers who value precision and classic regional character. Its origin in the Barolo heartland gives this bottling an extra layer of pedigree, translating the area’s altitude, rolling exposures, and limestone-influenced soils into lift, tension, and savory nuance.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
In the glass, it offers red cherry, raspberry, rose petal, and violet aromas, followed by hints of star anise, licorice, white pepper, and crushed stone. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with bright acidity and finely grained but persistent tannins, giving shape to a core of juicy red fruit and floral notes before a long, mineral, gently spicy finish. This is a refined, expressive Nebbiolo that pairs beautifully with tajarin with butter and sage, roast veal, or mushroom risotto.
Winery Background
Margherita Otto is the deeply personal project of Alan Manley, an American-born winemaker who settled in Barolo and trained with revered traditionalist estates including Bartolo Mascarello and Cavallotto. Founded in Monforte d’Alba, the winery is built on a philosophy of restraint, site transparency, and the classical Langhe practice of blending vineyards for balance and complexity. Fruit is farmed with meticulous attention, harvested by hand, and handled with a low-intervention mindset, while élevage favors traditional methods that preserve Nebbiolo’s aromatic clarity and structural integrity rather than masking it with excess extraction or oak. The result is a micro-production estate prized for authenticity, craftsmanship, and a notably pure expression of place.
