2020 Elvio Cogno “Anas-Cëtta” Nascetta di Novello

Description

93   Jeb Dunnuck
“Another fresh white, the 2020 Nascetta Del Comune Di Novello Anas-Cetta is starting to show the potential of these wines with a few years in bottle with its aromas of beeswax, fresh pear, and salty earth. It is medium to full-bodied and mouthwatering, with a salty lift and a lovely almondine note, and it is not showing any signs of oxidation. This is a beautiful and savory wine to enjoy over the next 15 years.”

92   Vinous
“The 2020 Anas-Cëtta is a brisk, vibrant white to drink now and over the next few years. Pear, green apple, mint, sage almond, crushed rocks and white pepper lend notable aromatic brilliance. The move towards a more chiseled style has paid off big-time.”

92   Wine Advocate
“This is always a standout white wine from Piedmont, and I found this hot-vintage release to be especially delicious and fun to drink. The Elvio Cogno 2020 Langhe Nascetta del Comune di Novello Anas-Cetta is ripe and fruit-forward with stone fruit, preserved lemon and hints of saffron. The wine’s texture shows some pretty weight and lasting creaminess. Best After 2022.”

92   Wine & Spirits
“Bright and zesty on the first sip, this wine gains fleshiness and texture with time in the glass. Flavors of juicy white peach, honeydew melon and kiwi meet lively acidity, with accents of green peppercorn and citrus peel. Delicious now, this will continue to improve with a few years in the cellar.”
