Le Strette 2006 Bergeisa Nebbiolo (Barolo)
Barolo Bergeisa reveals itself to be an elegant and sophisticated wine with delicate shadings of lead pencil, earthy tones, fragrant violets and black currants. The mouthfeel is tight with finely textured tannins and the finish is very polished and refined.

Le Strette 2006 Bergera Pezzole Nebbiolo (Barolo)
Le Strette’s Barolo from the Bergera-Pezzole vineyards is characterized by loads of fragrant exotic spice, scented church candle and bee’s wax. The wine is tight and hard in the mouth with firm tannins and a sharp, determined finish. Give it at least five more years of cellar aging.

Le Strette 2007 Le Strette Nebbiolo (Barolo)
Barolo Le Strette (with fruit sourced from the Novello and Barolo areas of Piedmont) opens with dark, inky concentration and sweet aromas of cinnamon, clove and mature berry fruit. The wine comes on with strength and personality, but in an immediate, one-dimensional manner.
