Dave Fletcher is a very talented young winemaker with an extreme passion for Nebbiolo. He is sourcing fruit from carefully selected Vineyards both here and in Northern Italy with the sole intention of producing his own style of single Vineyard Nebbiolo. Dave respects the tradition of the variety but prefers to make his wines in a modern style with balance and fruit purity very high on his agenda. The Fletcher wines are an incredible study in the enigma that is the Nebbiolo grape. As Dave has spent more time in the vineyards of Piedmont his list of wines has grown too.
There’s a sympathetic colour in this wine, intense, vibrant and alluring. Fletcher extracts a brilliance from these wines, it’s almost dazzling. A fuller palate weight than the dolcetto, as expected. It’s compacted and creamy. Dense, ripe cherry, pretty violet florals and dark cocoa like, fine tannins. If you’ve never dipped your toes into the wines of Piedmont, make this your first foray. A beautiful wine.
