In the Langhe, 2021 is being whispered about as a \"vintage of a generation.\" It had the perfect combination of a cool spring and a long, steady ripening period. For the Quartetto blend, this means the \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"272\"\u003ePinot Noir\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"287\"\u003eNebbiolo\u003c\/b\u003e are the stars of the show, bringing a level of floral elegance and \"snap\" that the riper years lack.
